    I know this isn’t the answer you were looking for, but they’re all the same. Arch, Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora, I’ve tried them all, and there isn’t a discernable difference.

      Well, I’m currently using VMware on Ubuntu to run Win 10 and Kali Linux. I don’t know what exactly caused the problem, it was either Ubuntu’s updates or VMware’s updates, but now Win 10 is unusable because it crashes (same with Kali Linux)

      Ubuntu imho is unstable in and of itself because of the frequent updates so I’m looking for another distro that prioritizes stability.

        Since you’ve been on Ubuntu, I would suggest Debian. The commands are pretty much the same across the board, and it’s one of the most stable distros in the wild.

        I would second Debian for stability, it’s what I use for all my VM servers. I have always preferred KVM however, as I had a lot of trouble with VMware hogging my cpu years ago. KVM has the virtual machine manager available for GUI monitoring but I’m not sure how far it goes for creating new VMs as I’ve always handled the setup directly from command line.

          No, I was relatively new to Ubuntu when I started using it so I didn’t have the wisdom to choose the LTS version.
