I’m on Tumbleweed for years with no major issues. I messed it up couple times myself (switching to Wayland and also pipewire among others) but there’s Snapper to save my ass. To see the update bork the system? Happened once I believe. Also solved by snapper and waiting a week.
Sure, updates are available almost daily, but they’re not forced. I update when I have time/will. Sometimes twice a week sometimes after months. Still solid.
Yeah, openSUSE Tumbleweed is a pretty solid distro…And really flexible, customizable in the way that approaches Arch without all the headaches that can come with knowing Arch. I don’t even mind the daily updates, it’s just something that people should be aware of. Particularly if they are compelled to be up to date (like myself). There is only a few problems that I’ve had and most of them were because of me. One was because SELinux was being a bastard (but it could be fixed with two commands). Hell, updating using Zypper is probably the fastest way to get them done, I don’t use GNOME software, as it can get irritating to update NVIDIA drivers (as it will ignore my agreeing to the licenses).
I like that YaST Software is a solid way of installing packages and software without much fuss.
