Actually this might be the release model that suits me the most. I want relatively uptodate releases but not new updates 2-3 times a week.

I wonder if there could be a system in place that is just Tumbleweed but with an user facing option from when to update. Like, on my machine I could use an update per week, but on someone's machine they might just need it once per month. With bug fixes and major DE versions ignoring this limit, or something similar.

You can update Tumbleweed once a week, or even once a month without problem. I think the added value of Slowroll is rather slower, hopefully even more consolidated QA no?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
