How often do you update your OS? (iusearchlinux.fyi)

It has been a while since I last made a post questioning things, life has been really busy. But I currently got a little bit of downtime so why not make a new thread again :)

So the question is how often do you do updates? Every day? Once a week? Once a month? When XY thing happens? Never? Or is it just completely random?

I try to do it every time I use the computer (so every day for my desktop and around weekly for the laptop) but of course thats not always possible. Desktop is running Arch with my custom setup I am still working on, and my laptop has EndeavourOS with LTS kernel.

When it comes to mobile, I have a OP8Pro so in terms of bloat as another user mentioned, its not that bad. I update the system whenever I see there is one, so roughly every 6 months I want to say. Apps I update regularly.
