Maybe what I’m looking for is the holy grail, but what do you guys suggest as a Distro with a good balance between stability and up-to-date packages?

    The holy grail, stable and up-to-date, it exists, it’s called Debian with Flatpaks.

    Install Debian. Avoid doing any changes to your package selection, try to get things from flatpaks.

      Problem with debian is it’s stable in the sense of unchanging, not necessarily a lack of bugs.

      He’s saying he wants up to date packages and stability, which seems to mean he was current software without bugs. That’s not debian stable.

          None, but bugs stick around way longer in debian stable because of how old the software is.

          Did you… really think I was talking about a bugless distro?
