Gentoo stable (aka not ~arch) might be rolling release but can also be surprisingly conservative, often getting new versions even after Debian stable. Gentoo testing (aka ~arch) does come with occasional surprises (although most common is some package update failing to build) but still worth it compared to having to deal with big updates or even reinstalls. |

I run testing on my desktop, and stable-with-some-exceptions on my servers and router.
For the past couple of decades, I've been periodically looking for other equally-no-surprises distros so that I can stop burning so much power on building from source, and, man, I don't think I'm ever going to find one.
