I follow the security list and scan -dev for warning of such things as
major transitions. I upgrade individual packages as needed (usually
Firefox): this occasionally leads to a general upgrade. I pay attention
to the output of "apt -s" and make sure I understand the consequences of
any proposed removals or "...but will not be installed..." messages,
especially when libraries are involved.
But I think it is mostly because I don't run a DE, especially Gnome.
