Based on the remarks I'm wondering if there's a distribution out there that is similar to Ubuntu LTS but only uses LTS kernels.

I'm on CentOS right now and love it, but from what I've understand so far it would be preferable to be on a newer kernel.

I was planning to look at Ubuntu LTS and while they do have updated kernels available they seem to ignore LTS: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/LTSEnablementStack

Also, 18.04 will be based on 4.15 which doesn't make sense to me.

Debian stable maybe?

EDIT: I know I can install updated kernels but I'd rather stick with what a core distribution provides if possible
