My experience with big release distros was like that. I rarely had an upgrade complete without issue. Rolling release has been good to me so far. Granted, this was 10 years ago and things gave probably gotten better since.
I used Manjaro in 2015 for about a year before switching to Arch and sticking with that for a long time. Recently I tried EndeavorOS for a few months, then I switched to Void just to try it.
I like EndeavourOS (Arch based) and OpenSUSE Tumbleweed (or Gecko Linux). But if you prefer sticking with apt based distro Debian Sid is a rolling release.
I think so, but from what I hear it is pretty stable, enough to use. I’d keep backups of important files, but I do that anyway. I use the Branched release myself, but an aquaintance of mine uses rawhide.

Never had an issue with Debian upgrades
Which distro with rolling release do you prefer?

I can solidly recommend either Arch or Void.

Check out Linux Mint Debian Edition, if it still exists. It was also rolling release.
Fedora is cool, I also want to try SUSE and endeavor though so I can’t speak on those yet.
Does fedora have a rolling version?

I think this counts but tbh I could be misunderstanding something.
I forgot about rawhide. But it’s not really intended for the general public, similar to debian testing, isn’t it?
