Try linux-lts. The latest "stable" releases of the kernel (since 6.10 onwards) have felt like they weren't tested at all, major regressions in every single version. I report them, but new problems keep coming. Never seen anything like that in two decades of being a mostly/only linux user.

The lts is fine, no problems at all.

The Linux Foundation cut funding for LTS releases: https://www.zdnet.com/article/long-term-support-for-linux-ke... They only spend a small percentage of their money on maintaining the kernel. So I think if you want a stable kernel you need to find someone downstream willing to do that work.

I see Alpine 3.20 still ships 6.6, I'll grab an ISO and check if works, thanks!

I suggest going with a Red Hat-like OS such as CentOS stream. It's boring, but my experience is that it's rock solid (when paired with good hardware).

What were the issues you faced with Debian on your servers?
