I’ve been thinking the same thing, I stick near stable releases of distros mostly because of both breakage and I don’t like just having hundreds of updates every week, this feels like a good in-between that gets me everything I want. I don’t need the latest and greatest days or hours after release, but I certainly don’t want to be years behind either.
I wonder if there could be a system in place that is just Tumbleweed but with an user facing option from when to update. Like, on my machine I could use an update per week, but on someone’s machine they might just need it once per month. With bug fixes and major DE versions ignoring this limit, or something similar.
You can update Tumbleweed once a week, or even once a month without problem. I think the added value of Slowroll is rather slower, hopefully even more consolidated QA no?
Actually this might be the release model that suits me the most. I want relatively uptodate releases but not new updates 2-3 times a week.
