Wait are you talking about macos or Linux?
My bad, it was meant to be a response to the comment about people switching from macOS to Linux.
getting a developer account with redhat you can have up to 10(?) instances of RedHat Linux LTS. super stable, is run on servers for many critical serves. Or just use rocky linux (bug for bug compatible with red hat) and establish a roll back procedure. There are rollback options at the filesystem level so you can snapshot before an update.
I use fedora and I don't typically have any issues and that is considered bleeding edge.
Macs have too many guardrails that get in the way which can be as disruptive as something breaking bc you need to work around it. But I am acknowledging that it is use case dependant.
