I’ve used a few different distros over the years: Debian, Ubuntu, Neon, openSUSE Leap
Never once has a major version upgrade ever gone 100% successfully. Even on a bog standard system with no 3rd party repos or niche hardware. I don’t know why it’s still so difficult
@turkalino @kiol I tried many distros, but some sticked with me: EndeavourOS, CachyOS and Manjaro, probably due to their rolling release nature so the updates come gracefully & gradually, but on my side, never once had an update that failed in any way
I was talking specifically about major version upgrades, e.g. openSUSE Leap 15.6 to 16.0. But yes, I currently use openSUSE Tumbleweed and upgrades have been smooth
