i haven’t checked for updates on one of my machines for like 7 months now. some packages are partial upgrades (hilariously, xz is currently on the backdoored version and I don’t care to fix it)
the thing survived multiple 500+ package upgrades from partial upgrade state and has been running for like 2.5 years now
Rolling release master race checking for updates several times per day.
KDE’s qt6 transition sure was something
Fucking hell, I nearly spat out my coffee at that one word. Bravo.
I haven’t had those issues on Tumbleweed. It gets massive updates all the time but everything seems to go just fine.
Whenever something breaks/doesn’t feel right, I’ll just reinstall the OS and it’ll work again
Rolling release, update every now and then, 4000+ packages is common. Nothing ever breaks.

I did.
However my zipper never breaks either. So both work, although in that case it’s loosely related.
