The dopamine from updates is real. After using an arch based distro for awhile, I switched to one with weekly updates instead. I was surprised by how disappointing it was to check for updates and not have any available.
Arch together with btrfs or zfs (or in a few years, bcachefs) and snapshots is the way to go. You can just boot to a previous snapshot if something fails.
The end game here is of course NixOS, where the operating system itself provides a way to boot to an old configuration by default.
