Why do people use standart distros when rolling-release distros exist? Srsly, it's so wrong when you can't install a software because some faggot doesn't compile it for a new version of a distro. This why Arch is a bless.

yeah but then you update and your entire OS breaks and now you've got to try and fix it even though you're a user and not a programmer

1. Almost doesn't happen when *you* don't fuck up your Gentoo stable.
2. Fixes to unbreak such problems almost always require just a litlle sysadmin monkey work, no programming.
3. Many mitigation techniques exist. Rollback to last nights lvm / btrfs / vm snapshot if you need to or whatever.
4. "Users" as in the undereducated masses can only handle Android at most.

Yes, standard-release has a tendency to break after upgrades, I agree. Doesn't happen on Arch tho.

Or just use Windows ?

Even worse. WIndows is for people who dont respect themselves.

better then linux which lacks half or programs and has if it has any they dont have gui

WHY DON'T PEOPLE JUST RUN NIGHTLY BUILDS OF EVERYTHING?

STABILITY? WHO NEEDS THAT SHIT WHEN I CAN SPEND 3 HOURS REINSTALLING EVERYTHING ANY TIME A NIGHTLY BUILD WIPES MY SYSTEM AND RAPES MY MOM!

>update breaks something
>install older version from package cache
wow that was difficult

I want to ask you the same. I have my server set up behind the firewall. Why would I want to get potential issues by upgrading every piece of software to a new version? Some software breaks config compatibility between versions, the most notable example for me is Squid.
Of course, if you like it, you'll get the additional job security, but I'm not into that "newer is always better" fad.
