I think I saw posts on Reddit with XQC saying Arch is the best. I mean it is. And I use Arch btw.
1) do you want an intermediary between you and the upstream? for example, to patch out telemetry
2) is it important that what you're using continues to work the same way so you can focus on your actual work?
No answer to either is consequence-free, e.g. for 1), see the Debian SSH patch event, or for 2), if the answer is "it doesn't work", then that kinda forces one's hand.
The "everything changing all at once" thing is what eventually drove me to arch (as the most popular at the time rolling release distro - and more stable at the time than debian sid), I'd personally rather have smaller breaking changes more frequently. Though it's probably less painful now to update debian versions than it use to be because things generally work better without configuration than they used to.
