    I love the floating release model. Other OSes vastly over estimate how much time I want to spend on huge updates that break stuff.

      Agreed; if you tend to tweak your system at all, 1-2 years of updates all at once will cause chaos with 1-2 years of small changes you totally meant to record in your notes. On the very rare occasion something breaks on my EOS system, updates are frequent enough that it’s usually just the one issue at a time, and I’m still able to remember what silly thing I did to cause the issue - such as compiling NeoChat from git main while using a lib from the AUR to get session verification working early.
