Do you update your Arch often (daily) or not?
Which would be better?

I figure, if I update every day, I’ll likely not expect any issues, so I’d be less careful. And if something goes wrong (cause I didn’t read the news or the PKGBUILDs), I probably won’t have time to fix it right now.
Whereas if I update monthly, it’s something I’m taking my time to do, read the news beforehand, pay more attention and will have scheduled some time for it.

What’s your take?

    sudo pacman -Sy every couple of days.

    sudo pacman -Syu every two or three months (or as needed to install a new application).
