Do you update your Arch often (daily) or not?
Which would be better?

I figure, if I update every day, I’ll likely not expect any issues, so I’d be less careful. And if something goes wrong (cause I didn’t read the news or the PKGBUILDs), I probably won’t have time to fix it right now.
Whereas if I update monthly, it’s something I’m taking my time to do, read the news beforehand, pay more attention and will have scheduled some time for it.

What’s your take?

    if you fear issues then setup automatically snapshots of your system

    anyway I’m running monthly updates on my Arch Server for years
    just don’t forget to reload your kernel modules upon a kernel update (or just simply reboot)
