    Absolutely not. Arch always releases updates, as soon as they are available. This means, that there isn’t that much testing before the release. This can cause lots of problems for the end user. Debian tries to be the most stable Distribution in existence. They Accomplish this by testing a lot. This causes update to come not very often. Debian’s strategy works.

      Lol you’re buying into the FUD. ubuntu doesn’t test every possible combination of packages, nor do they test how updates actually impact the user. Generally updates are always good for users. They fix bugs. 99% of the time someone comes to a linux forum asking about an issue, the answer is “this was fixed in the latest kernel, try updating”. But because they’re using distros that use ancient, 3 year old kernels, they can’t.

      Unless you have a staging computer where you stage your updates, you’re living in an illusion about “stability”, and using ancient tools with ancient bugs for no reason
