It shouldn't be an issue even on a rolling release. I mean it's not like it installs every intermediary version of every package, it just jumps to the latest versions no? At least that's how I imagine it works.

Right, but my tumbleweed install gets 100+ package updates per week, whereas ubuntu gets like 20

[-] Mio@feddit.nu 1 points 4 months ago

Yes. The question comes down to how many of these you need. And do you have the resources for it?

[-] ichbinjasokreativ@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

My Computers are all reasonably modern and decetly spec'd, resources should not be an issue. Ubuntu also ships with a lot more pre-installed packages than tumbleweed does, but I get your point.
