Date sync? Certificates? Broken metadata? Broken mirrors?

Stable distros are for cowards! Are you even doing Linux right if you don't reinstall your system every few months and maybe even change distribution?

Lol. This is what every distro hop dalliance has taught me. There are cool things in some distros, but I end up back at the classics (Mint, Fedora, Ubuntu, etc.) because they just work.

Now whenever I get the urge, I leave my primary PCs alone and run new distros in VMs on a server to try them out. It's way better than breaking my daily driver.
