Well Debian doesn’t have a rolling distro, does it?
It was something that underpinned your choice and now it’s not. I’m not sure why you said gotta find when you already knew the answer.

OpenSuse Tumbleweed. Reliable and up to date.

- Comment on Mozilla exits the fediverse and will shutter its Mastodon server in December | TechCrunch 1 month ago:
True, but it probably won’t work. Unless the browser pulls them in as plugins and becomes modular. Most are trying to give a rich web experience out of the box and I’m not sure users will accept different programs for different things.
I really like Gemini as an idea and hope it finds it’s groove for many, but lots of mainstream users may not like it and the ad industry that people are using to fund there sites certainly won’t.

They can also use Yahoo or Bing as default for money.
The other option is diversify your revenue. Which is likely where the ad stuff comes in. If they can do that in a privacy respecting way, I have no objections. The loss of the biggest open source chromium alternative is massive and unthinkable.
For all the flaws of Mozilla, no one has forked, done better and put it out of business. It’s easier to run it behind a keyboard with zero responsibility.
