it is that simple

I'd go further. Target 10 years on your hardware, with maybe a GPU upgrade along the way if absolutely necessary. No reason for anything more.

>>105983342 (OP)
being two releases behind on every app sucks though

>>105983342 (OP)
I do this. I've had my current PC for about 11 years so with the 13 release I'll buy a new thinkpad and be good for another 10 or so years.

I use artix and I update daily and it never breaks. If it ever did break I would just chroot into my install and rollback whatever package is giving me issues. I trust the maintainers and read the forums often
