I used to “virtual distro hop” because I tried a lot of distros in VMs before dualbooting. I installed Tumbleweed and haven’t changed ever since.
I don’t regret keeping my distro, I’ve been curious, of course, but I think i already have it all:
Stability
The newest updates
I know my system very well
By knowing my system, I can fix most problems and I know where to go if I can’t.
I sometimes try distros in VMs, but with that and Distrobox I think I already have everything I could need to learn and try them in case I need to work with them in the future :)
