    I used to run a yay -Syu on my system almost daily.

    Now, I run a pacman -Syu once every 2-3 weeks, and I only ever update a package from the AUR if I do need it updated or is there a serious vulnerability.

    Turns out I don’t have a real need to have my personal system running bleeding edge new software at all times. Sure, the updates are larger, but I no longer feel like risking my system stability on a daily basis. I’m a lot happier this way.

      Same, I’m planning to switch to OpenSUSE slowroll when it comes out of beta.
