Answer 15

actually the best version is 16.04
because 17.04 ver is kinda beta version
it's no longer support some app and it's firewall expire date is within end of this year
But 16.04 ver is not like that it's firewall expire upto 2022 I think.
if you install 16.04 ver first update and then use it
