I liked it years ago, BUT. Upgrading it always seems to break something.
Version 6 came out, so I took a punt.
With the latest kernel, it goes into a boot loop. Try the second newest,
get blank screen. Going back, it only works with old kernel 5.16 and
furthermore only with lxdm display manager. With sddm, get streaks of
scrambled colour, maybe not setting graphics card properly. With gdm,
get a GUI greeter, but can't login - it says password is wrong.
I do prefer a rolling distribution, tend to not get breaking changes
once a year and for me at least never had issues with my 20 year old installation that is up to date.
Can I ask which rolling distro are you using ? 20 year is a lot!
