Ask HN: An OS for people who hate changes?

I really don't like any changes to my OS (and software) once set up, unless I choose to install some change. I understand the need for security updates but I wish they were not bundled with features, i.e. how Windows 10 updates everything compared to Windows 7 specific update selection. So, I migrated from Windows 7 to Ubuntu, but now Ubuntu is down the same path where everything changes and breaks by itself all the time. Where should I migrate next? How is Mac with updates; is security tradeoff better when staying on old major versions? What flavor of Linux is most like Ubuntu before snaps?
