8 hours agoDebian continues to be one of the best distros ever made. If I had the means, it would get funding every time I run apt update.
I think almost any distro would be good at uptimes for days or weeks on end, but personally:
If you have newer harder, Fedora will have newer packages and drivers for that hardware.
If you have anything older than 2 years, Debian should be fine as long as you don’t mind older editions of your favorite desktop environment.
I think something to consider is that most distros don’t care when you update, as long as you update properly.
Arch for example doesn’t care of you update daily, weekly, or monthly. They just want you to update all packages at once instead of partial upgrades to help solve errors and ensure everyone is on the same page when needing help.
My personal vote would be Debian, as that can stay up for months without issue, but I get distracted by new bells and whistles on KDE releases so I use Fedora.
