    Kind of funny it makes sense to someone to name it the "stable build". Like a shop that sell fresh fish. Whats the alternative? 🙂 Old fish.... Who sells that ...

    "Stable" is a common term used in software development to refer to a release that is considered (mostly) free of any major bugs or other issues. Before becoming a stable release, software will often be referred to as a "Beta" release which indicates that you could run into issues or bugs while using it. Basically, beta means it's in testing and stable means it's ready for release.
