What are “rolling-release” distributions?
Well, before hopping into the list of Linux distros, let’s first understand what exactly is the rolling-release distribution.
It is a distribution that releases the updates of each of the programs that it includes at the moment that it is proven that the program is in a stable version. To clear it, let’s take the example of Arch and Ubuntu. Arch is a rolling release Linux distro because its developers offer the latest upgrade & updates of kernel and software as soon as their least stable versions are available.
Unlike Arch, Ubuntu is known for its long-term stable version. And that is the reason it is not a rolling release Linux because updates we usually get in it are for security and maintenance along with well stable package updates for installed software. That means no new feature or kernel upgrade in the current release, hence the user has to wait for the next release. For example, Ubuntu 20.04 is running on GNOME 3.36 and it will not get the 3.38 at all. For that, the users have to move to its latest upcoming version.
That’s the reason non-rolling release distros are much more stable than rolling ones. For this reason, it is always recommended to perform a fresh installation to non-rolling Linux from scratch, although in general users with the version it is syndrome are the most affected.
This is exactly what rolling release distributions solve. In the rolling release, we don’t need to jump from one major release to another, hence fewer chances of break-down appearing during the system upgrade. No need to reinstall when a new version is released unless there is a very serious problem with the system. Once you have installed all the packages you need, as they are updated with new versions, all you have to do is update them from the repositories, including the system packages like the kernel.
Rolling-release Advantage
The newest possible version of the software will be on your system means you’ll have more “polished” software with fewer bugs, more and better features, etc.
Now need to perform a full system upgrade or reinstall to get the latest packages and features. It is very beneficial because many Linux distros release new versions every 6 months such as Ubuntu, which is a very short time.
Rolling-release Disadvantage
The first and immediate disadvantage is instability as many packages that get by the system are in their latest with least tested versions.
Mainly the most recent versions of a package do not have to be compatible with another package that you are using, so it may stop working, and, for example, you are left without a graphical environment until they update the package that is incompatible with the update.
