Its really a shame every desktop distro has that problem, then.
Sometimes, you install updates, even on your LTS branch distro, and stuff gets really broken. You can roll back, but can sometimes have to fiddle with the computer to get it working enough to where you can do that.
If you’ve got a mission critical workflow, you essentially need 2 computers, regardless of the OS you’re using.
Case in point: Typing from a spare Surface Pro that I installed Ubuntu and some support drivers on for the touchscreen. Some update broke the touchscreen drivers, and I needed a keyboard and a lot of googling to repair them.
If this had happened on Windows, someone likely could’ve taken it to their repair shop or to Microsoft. Sadly, these days even Microsoft might’ve dropped any user aid.
been running Debian trixie for the last year and had zero problems. previously on bookworm for two years still no problems.
before that I was on Almalinux for a year, zero problems.
and from 2014-2019 I was on Fedora, again no problems.
pre-2014 I was on some variant of distro just can’t remember that far back (probably some variant of redhat like centos).
sporadically I’ve used other distros like Mint, Ubuntu, Arch, BSD, Kali, Raspbian, etc. There were some stability issues with Mint and Ubuntu but everything else was rock solid.
For decades I have run and supported rhel, fedora, centos, debian, as servers.
like I said, it’s either the distro, or a skills issue. if you are having problems after updates, you have a package problem and should probably clean up your dependency tree/repos.
