Because it's the most stable OS?

>>54710250
so they could add the testing repositories after installing with a *stable* installer.
>>
>>54710250
Because only stable gets the security updates

Because you're a SJW cuck

Alsa didn't work out of the box. I'm not even joking.

He said "stable", not turnkey. Debian is stable as in unlikely to crash, and stable as in things don't really change.

>>54711000
what the fuck do you need sound for on a server

Proxmox VE

If you have to ask, you probably wouldn't understand, anyway.

just werks

Because it's stable.

Because not everyone is an Archfag that wants to update every day and possibly have it break something. Stable is "it doesn't change and doesn't break, except for security patches". And for a lot of people bleeding-edge features just aren't very important at all, and low-maintenance is.

>Stable
