How many bleeding edge packages do you akshully need, and are they hard to build from source?
Lucas Diaz
If you want both, install Gentoo or Debian, probably using testing packages (especially if it's Debian).

Manjaro

'stable' & uptodate? linux? stable?
anyway - used that Antergos thing with GNOME (and shitload of extensions and customization crap) for more than a year, didn't have issues and every day it was nagging me to update shit cuz Arch.
only one i remember at one point had to uninstall and reinstall node.js (couldn't update anything otherwise) because of some incompatibly with something else from AUR (which is not on by default i think) but although bleeding edg, it never was like the system exploded and died.
ironingly, the recent 'flaghship' distro - ubaboo1710 immediately turned out to be freezing, unstable trash.
currently on debian (MATE) because don't want to bite the bullet by having to reinstall anything out of nowhere.

Stable: Debian or Slackware
Up to date: Arch
You can't have both
Nolan Kelly
Gentoo, unironically
Nolan Smith
Only Gentoo
Matthew Jenkins
Kek now stop it people might believe this
Kayden Roberts
Slackware. Packages are up to date, but not bleeding edge, and yet, it is the most stable distro that currently exists. it is due to its philosophy and the fact that the packages are maintained by the community, rather than the developer(s)
Wyatt Gutierrez
Aiden Anderson
up to date,
maybe the best is a clean arch install with barely or non random aur shit installed and with lts kernel
stable,
debian or maybe slackware like someone here suggested
Carter Anderson
Arch, duh

Fedora keeps packages very up to date and has most of the latest features. Solus Os has the latest packages of the software it supports which is more limited compared to other distros.

fuck off kevin
Mason Richardson
stable and up to date are irreconcilable concepts.
Pick one.

Honestly I've had more problems with Debian Testing and Sid than Arch GNU/Linux. Arch upgrades never broke anything and it's pretty stable.
Bentley Cook
I just Manjaro XFCECES on everything, works fine.

Manjaro is a good balance of up-to-date and stable, assuming you use not-broken GUIs like Xfce.
Chase Perez
Meh XFCE is pretty decent, KDE isn't broken just makes it feel so limited and that's really why I stepped away from Windows.
Didn't even bother with the other DE's.

this must be bait
