It shouldn’t be an issue even on a rolling release. I mean it’s not like it installs every intermediary version of every package, it just jumps to the latest versions no? At least that’s how I imagine it works.

Right, but my tumbleweed install gets 100+ package updates per week, whereas ubuntu gets like 20

Yes. The question comes down to how many of these you need. And do you have the resources for it?

My Computers are all reasonably modern and decetly spec’d, resources should not be an issue. Ubuntu also ships with a lot more pre-installed packages than tumbleweed does, but I get your point.
