### [Fedora](Fedora.md)
|
||||
- Stable Release
|
||||
- New stable release every 6 months
|
||||
- Usually a good balance between something like Debian and Arch
|
||||
- Relatively recent software and well tested together
|
||||
- Commonly used for non-windows Enterprise Desktops
|
||||
|
||||
## Rolling Release vs Stable Release
|
||||
Rolling Release distros will package updates for any software and send it out to be updated on your system as soon as they determine it is good to go.
|
||||
|
||||
Whereas a Stable Release distros will accumulate new versions of software, testing them all together before pushing all the updates together at once and a new "version" of the OS.
|
||||
|
||||
For desktop use Rolling Release is perfectly good and can be nice in the sense you don't have to wait for a new version of your OS to get the lastest update for your software.
|
||||
But stable release distros have the advatage of getting more time to test to catch and fix any weird problems a new update may have.
