Maybe what I’m looking for is the holy grail, but what do you guys suggest as a Distro with a good balance between stability and up-to-date packages?

      tbf neither does Fedora.

      But yeah, I would recommend either Debian or NixOS, depending on how stable you want it.

      Is this not solved by using the “unstable” nixpkgs channel or is that something different?

      I’m a NixOS newbie and still learning a lot about it haha

        The stable branches promise no breaking changes (in configuration options etc.). Unstable is a rolling release with everything that entails (personally I use it on desktops and stable on servers).
