In terms of anecdotal stories, Ubuntu releases after the initial Warty were (for me) plagued with an ever increasing number of bugs. I eventually switched to Fedora and haven't looked back.

All the distros are pushing massive changes at a possibly-too-quick state. Ubuntu fostered Upstart on us pretty damn quickly, for instance. The take away is that Linux as an OS still has a long way to go before it's remotely stable or user friendly.

If you want "stable" and "user friendly", go for one of the enterprisey distributions, like RHEL or SLES, or even CentOS. But then don't complain that the software is old and lacking glitz and newest bling.

Not all distros change quicky. This is where Debian's turtle-like pace shines. It's already too late to put systemd in the next stable and by the time that the one after that comes along systemd will be mature and accepted or well-debunked by faster moving distros.
