I’m planning on moving to linux from windows(personal) and macos(work use), although I prefer mac os, so I don’t really want to use mint, and I feel like I should add that I don’t care if GNOME isn’t that similar to macos, I want something different, and I also use my computer for gaming

    You don’t need to update things to use rolling-release distros, and I’ve never encountered an issue with updates yet.

      Not updating regularly is the best way to brick a rolking release, just trust me on that one! 😅😂

      I think rolling releases are fine for beginners as long as they update regularly. If you do not update EndeavourOS often enough, you will get arch-letting and GPG issues when you do. Also, you may get more than one “do you want to replace” questions and the more packages you are updating, the harder it is to know what that means.

      I think Manjaro has ruined the reputation of all rolling releases. People blame the problems Manjaro has on its rolling nature. You will not see those issues on Arch. By reputation, OpenSUSE Tumbleweed is solid.
