Endeavour OS because once you go rolling you can never go back.
- I loved EndeavourOS, but I'm just not sure bleeding edge is for me. Mostly because I will forget to update for a week, and suddenly there are 500 updates, all with interconnected dependencies and pacman is just like "wtf dude?"
  I'm not sure I really gained any benefit from that over using a more stable release. I switched to Bazzite a few months back, and it's been amazing. Immutable is very interesting, and it's made for the most stable PC I've ever owned.
  Highly recommend Bazzite for gamers (or I guess it's good for multimedia too), or if not, one of the other Fedora-based immutable distros.
  
  This is one of the little things I love about Gentoo. It's rolling, but not bleeding edge.
  Plus, you can opt into bleeding edge either per package or for all packages. It's honestly a flexibility that doesn't even require a source-based distro, so Arch could do it too.
  
  The only time I come close to that number of updates (300 - 350) is when KDE Applications and KDE is updated at the same time. I update twice a week.
- because it keeps rolling ?
  
  😆 I meant back to static release
  
  I understand
  
  I should have been clearer.
