>and it's easier to deal with than a huge upgrade every 6 months or more. I ran Arch but moved back to a LTS , it is not about stability but mostly I don't want surprises, my file manager works fine for me now , who knows the next version would remove or break something that will be maybe fixed in a different version but would also introduce a new bug. For my IDE I keep 3 versions just in case some bug or stupid UI change is introduced, for people like my I think as stable base where you can update only the programs that you want/need is a better solution. I also have the option and used it to get backported kernels and nvidia drivers to get better vulkan support - I am at that point in live where I would dread to see that there is an update pending and there is a new kernel or video driver version available.
