I recommend Debian specifically because it's slow to keep up, and most people just don't need the latest features anyway. Especially if you're new to Linux, stability is important.
It's great for a server system but I find it less great for a desktop environment. Hardware support take longer to get to the kernel, UI improvements take longer to get to the desktop etc.
