CentOS for my long running systems. Even with stream I expect that to be more than stable and predictable for my needs, meaning low feature-creep. I use the ElRepo kernels with CentOS and even that has been quite stable to my surprise. Alpine Linux for temporary instances when I just need something stood up quickly. The VM and docker container images are tiny. The supported packages are almost always up to date with upstream. The setup is so fast and small I can basically run the entire thing in ram.
