What's the best rolling release distro that isn't bleeding edge? I need something that works but isn't ancient or a 6month point release distro.
What's the best rolling release distro that isn't bleeding edge...
teh rei
you know gentoo is the answer
Probably you can go for Devian (or Devuan), install the stable minimal iso, set the repositories on testing branch to update from there.
If you go for the testing branch installer, check the errata before.
This possibly is the closest thing to a "not too bleeding edge rolling release distro" you can get.
I'm probably out of touch whit this one on specific, so another thing that I can recommend is what I actually use, Void Linux. Rolling, very close to upstream (no more than 2 weeks), pretty easy to setup, very minimal and stable.
just use arch
fedora
gentoo, it's stable. It actually works regressions before pushing versions.
They made a gnome fork without systemd if you want it
Gentoo, unironically.
You can also choose individual bleeding edge packages, but keep the rest of the system on a stable branch if so you wish. And if you change your mind, it's usually not a problem to go back.
Void
void is unstable trash with shitty driver support , fedora is botnet, gentoo is best but use debian testing or devuan
