I am about to set up a cloud instance with linux operating system, and the common choice here normally would be ubuntu. But since they failed their newest release, and I have the option of going fedora or debian. What would you guys recommend for server?

    My AI says I should always choose Debian 12 (last stabel) instead of 13 (latest build). Is this still a thing? Not hosting applications that needs to be reliably run on latest builds?

      To find out the actual current latest stable, just check the site: https://www.debian.org/releases/

      The stable distribution contains the latest officially released distribution of Debian.

      This is the production release of Debian, the one which we primarily recommend using.

      The current stable distribution of Debian is version 13, codenamed trixie. It was initially released as version 13.0 on August 9th, 2025 and its latest update, version 13.4, was released on March 14th, 2026.
