It's not, it's just different. You mostly get newer stuff and more breakage.



> more breakage.

NO! STOP!

Seriously, don't spread rumors. Debian "Stable" has bugs and issues that up-to-date distros have solved.

The word "Stable" has 0 correlation with bug-free. It is entirely meaning "outdated/old" and used for bug consistency, not OS stability.


So it's like Debian Unstable?


A bit, but it feels a lot more alien. If you're moving through the Debian/Ubuntu family, the base system is quite similar, apt is always there for you etc... . In Fedora, it's different.
