So, as we know, probably most of the openSUSE users are also KDE users… and openSUSE is sometimes being labeled as the king of KDE.
Now, the last day, i’ve seen some KDE artwork people using Kubuntu. Kubuntu is supported by Blue Systems for roughly two years now. Now, i see SUSE and Blue Systems on top of KDE sponsors. So a thought? Estimate on a larger number of users of both systems? Will Kubuntu continue to live the way it does (branding et al.)? What would you say are overall pros/cons on using one or another?
And which distro takes the throne, in your humble opinion?
I do have kubuntu 14.04 installed on one box, mostly for testing.
The opensuse implementation of kubuntu seems more congenial to me, though kubuntu is probably adequate.
Yast is far better than Muon for software management.
Kubuntu came configured for only one workspace, and no pager. Opensuse came configured for 2 workspaces with a pager. (I currently have 4 workspaces and pager on both).
Kubuntu updated firefox to version 30 several days earlier than did opensuse, but I think the opensuse team is testing more thoroughly.
I have a Kubuntu WM running (test&play whit). I agree with nrickert that Yast is much better then Muon. The KDE implementation is much nicer in openSUSE then Kubuntu. On the other hand OpenMandriva is also looking nice, -but don’t ask me about the technical details there :).
10 times more active users in this forum compared to Kubuntus? No comments on that. I don’t know what the different forums count as “a active user”.
I think most people use the forums to get support whenever they have issues so that is why ChitChat is slow. Which is a shame because there are lots of interesting things to discuss on here (and imagine how fast the There’s a Beautiful World Outside openSUSE Too thread would update!).
