A Pi isn’t substantially less stable than any other SBC or a PC if you take care of the SD wearout issue (see [ZRAM](https://community.openhab.org/t/zram-status/80996) for that purpose).  
Anything else is peripherals related or a _software_ problem and as such as-likely to happen on any other hardware as well.
