This.
Stability is something you want in a server.
Once you set it up, updating it should be for security reasons not features.
Sometimes they go together and you have to use a more direct source but still... Debian.

Arch.
OpenBSD, definitely.

CentOS

Doesn't matter.
Debian is okay. Ubuntu server is okay. Even OpenBSD is okay.

CentOS or Ubuntu (fad) are pretty much your only options if you want an OS easily set up for a web server.
