Do you update your Arch often (daily) or not?
Which would be better?

I figure, if I update every day, I’ll likely not expect any issues, so I’d be less careful. And if something goes wrong (cause I didn’t read the news or the PKGBUILDs), I probably won’t have time to fix it right now.
Whereas if I update monthly, it’s something I’m taking my time to do, read the news beforehand, pay more attention and will have scheduled some time for it.

What’s your take?

    General rule for me is at least once at week ( though I’ve had a laptop go almost six months last year and was fine post update ).

    I would also recommend updating prior to installing any new software.
