I had been a Debian based distro user for ever (ubuntu, sidux, Debian unstable/testing... ) things were breaking all the time. Sure if you stick to stable things only break once every couple of years when you upgrade to the next version. However stable is really not suitable for desktop work, I'd have to install almost all my usual software through other means, that's not what I use a distro for.
I switched to tumbleweed 2 years back and really liked it, but zypper/rpm is awfully slow and I was missing some packages (although OBS is awesome). So I tried endeavorOS 6 month ago (arch with graphical installer) and I have to say I really like it. Not one break so far.
actually the breakage is often in configuration updates. Libreoffice is particularly bad, often it doesn't start without any message after an upgrade, which is fixed by whiping it ~/.config/libreoffice
