The Fedora KDE spin technically isn't a rolling distribution but it has frequent updates so as long as you're current I don't think it's a huge step. Ubuntu is only slightly less conservative than Debian. For example the Fedora box is currently installing the 6.13.9 kernel and Ubuntu 24.10 is 6.11.0. That has no practical difference for me as far as I can tell but other Ubuntu apps are similarly lagging.
