I've never had an issue of this gravity on Windows. I use Linux and it has its issues as well. Stability is not why I use Linux lmao

[–] nekbardrun@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

as far as I know, Debian is the "gold standard" for stable linux to the point of being one of the most famous distros used on servers as well.

Exceptions are using unstable/testing versions of debian or accounting for an windows program to just work perfectly under wine (but that is a microsoft-linux integration which MS almost always wants to not happen)

Perhaps not stability, but certainly the ability to understand a problem and fix things is why I use Linux. On Windows or MacOS you just get "Oops, something unexpected happened", or if youre lucky "Error -2847".

On linux you can read the journalctl or have a poke in /var/log/ and actually find an answer that's more helpful than "reinstall the operating system / program"

Stability is why I use an atomic distro

You use the wrong linux then.

[–] macaw_dean_settle@lemmy.world -3 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

No, they all have their issues. That is the very definition of linux.

I usually restart my gentoo machines when I move or once every couple of years when I update them. Debian stable is pretty similar.
