Pick an image-based distro. I personally use Atomic Fedora Sway but there are many others in this vein.
The point is that out-of-box you get the ability to not only rollback to a previously working state of your distro, but also to run container images you build yourself on your computer. You can boot container images now with bootc.
This makes managing a Linux distro super easy, and rolling back experimental changes or package issues even easier.
Because you have to make the assumption that something will go wrong, sooner or later, you will have to use the commandline to troubleshoot and workaround issues. Unfortunately this is the case in every OS.
That's why a simple rollback process is the best gift to ordinary users.
