What Ubuntu-based distribution can you recommend which has a Rolling release model? I want to have available both Ubuntu specific software (eg. Unity / Virtualbox / Snaps) and newer other software like from Debian Testing. What do you think? I want it to be a Ubuntu/Debian based distro, to be able to install .deb files.

Ubuntu has Rolling Rhino
If you want to read a blog about it, I'll refer you to
https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2020/06/ubuntu-rolling-release-rhino-tool
Ubuntu desktop lead Martin Wimpress has created a tool called Rolling Rhino. Its aim: convert an Ubuntu daily build image into a “rolling release” distro by opting into and tracking the devel series of changes/packages. (Joey Sneddon)
or from the source directly

Convert Ubuntu into a "rolling release" that tracks the devel series; for the toughest of Ubuntu users.
Created by Martin Wimpress, (lead of Ubuntu Desktop at Canonical)
Note: Using Rolling Rhino will put you off-topic for sites such as this, just like my own use of the development cycle does (I moved to groovy the day after release of focal, i'll move to the h series the day or so after groovy becomes 20.10, so be aware that you'll have less support options using Rolling Rhino, thus the warning given for the toughest of Ubuntu users.
