Huh, may be switching to OpenSuse in the future.

[–] itsJoelleScott 9 points 1 year ago

It's certainly on my list alongside Debian. It's a shame, since my distro of choice is Fedora but I'll switch next time I need to re-install my OS. If they throw opt-out telemetry into the mix I'm dipping immediately. Sure, I could opt out, but I don't want to fuck it up.

OpenSUSE is awesome. Just note that Leap 15 is the last version of Leap and details about its successor are still unknown. But if you don't mind the older kernel etc, it will be supported until December 2025, so plenty of time for them to have a robust successor!

As far as I can tell, SUSE Liberty Linux will be the RHEL fork.

Which is fine. I can use that on my server. But I am looking at Opensuse to replace Fedora on my desktop and laptop.

As someone who has used openSUSE Tumbleweed the experience was great and I really liked the OBS and easy BTRFS snapshots.
But I think BTRFS was what made gaming performance tank (but I didn't try openSUSE with ext4) and I also missed the AUR alot so back to Arch it was.
