thinking of trying linux, - eviltoast

My current issue is i see you guys constantly having issues, editing files etc.

Is it not stable?

Can you not set it up and then not have ongoing issues?

    You’re always going to see people with problems in support forums. If your Linux system is running well, you’re less likely to post about it than if you’re having problems.

      Hi! I’m not having any problems with linux. I just thought you’d like to know.

      There. Now there’s a message in the support forums about a person not having problems!

      gives an idea to create something like “stablelinux” where people share uptime and what practices they use to not get into trouble

        Those communities got a little stale when enough people started reporting uptime in decades. Also, unless you’re on a flavor that can upgrade the kernel while the system is live, good uptimes these days are just the time between kernel updates.
