I've been using Debian stable on the desktop exclusively since Etch (around 2007). I strongly recommend it for someone who is always busy and doesn't have time to fiddle around. I run Sid in a schroot for the one package I need which is not in backports (a recent R for RStudio. Reference: http://charles.plessy.org/Debian/debi%C3%A2neries/r-4.1/ ). Debian stable relieves all the pain of the frequent breakage (CUPS) from constant unnecessary upgrades.
