Debian stable is like LTS, you can skip whole LTSs on Ubuntu? I thought you could update just to the next LTS.

- jepler 9y agoI'm wrong, or else I misspoke. You can go from Ubuntu LTS to the following LTS, which gives you 2 years off from disruptive updates. Compared to the 6 month treadmill of non-LTS Ubuntu versions, this sounds great. But Debian has had an "every two years or so" schedule for their major updates, so it's really about the same as sticking with an Ubuntu LTS until the next one comes along.
