Use stable. When stability is important, that is the correct
distribution to use. You might also like
http://kamarajukusumanchi.github.io/choosing_debian_distribution/choosing_debian_distribution.html

distribution. It has not been updated in a while (so the names of
stable, testing are different) but the content should still be
relevant.
