I use arch with btrfs and a pacman hook, that creates a snapshot before and after every update.

You can also configure grub to create new entries for those snapshots and boot directly from them.

For me this is safeguard enough.

People are starting to use different bootloaders now so I guess that infamous grub issue ended up being a good push for diversity in bootloader.

Grub has many features & addons that many others are still lacking though. But maybe we'll see some improvements in that area now as well. Still sucks for an end user.
