LOL never beaks. Most Linux distros are chock full of bugs that the end user has to work around
I've not had a single breakage in the past ~4 years I've been on Fedora Workstation, despite me often moving to the beta channel. Pretty nice for an up-to-date distro.
Granted, I've also been on some less stable distros/DEs (in my case, it used to be Manjaro's KDE version). Perhaps yours is similar, since you claim to have extreme stability problems?
I cannot say the same for Windows, where things randomly stop working, I still occasionally get bluescreens, it shits the bed when I change hardware, etc. the last time I booted into Windows my audio stopped working entirely, and no matter how many times I reinstalled audio drivers or did a system restore, nothing would fix it. I ended up having to buy an external DAC.
There's a lot of reasons to stay on windows, never heard of stability being one haha. It's bsod city over there lol
I haven't seen that on Fedora, in the years that I've been using it.
