When choosing a new VPS, I got confused between choosing OS Ubuntu and Linux. For running PHP sites, which OS should I select for my VPS that more secure and stable? Thanks

Ubuntu is actually a Linux distribution!
You mean Ubuntu or CentOS? Am I right?

I use Ubuntu on PC as well. So I got used to the commands and understand better. There is lesser learning curve when you use Debian or Ubuntu ( a derivative of Debian ). You just have all commands familiar so there is less difficulty managing command line interface for server. Plus there are a lot of guide on Ubuntu / Debian as well.
