This is a bit funny because while I used TW, my institute (previous job) was using LEAP as servers and at least once a year LEAP shipped with borked update and I usually offered them personally tested internal TW packages to mitigate the borked updates. In fact, that’s why I went TW because at least between LEAP 15.1~15.4, TW was more stable.
There is also Kubuntu, which us Ubuntu with KDE but gosh, sitting while having hemorrhoids are more comfortable than dealing with Ubuntu community.
Hi @SJLPHI kubuntu it’s great. But it lacks yast and has snap which I don’t like very much
We cannot base a conclusion on the experience of just one or two users.
According to most of the forum users here, TW is less stable and/or has a higher risk to break something.
And yes, also Leap can sometimes break something, but that happens much less.
I like how Kubuntu looks but under the hood, it suffers all the same issues that Ubuntu has, and same thing with Linux Mint, I loved Cinnamon and in fact I started my linux track on mint cinnamon but similar to Ubuntu and Mac, you customize 1 little thing then it becomes unstable after one update.
In fact, the reason how I ended up in Opensuse in the first place was to get my old Lenovo T410s’ touchpad to work and everyone was basically saying “oh yeah try kernel update”, and that still didn’t fix the issue + next update bricked the installation. The community in Mint is better than Ubuntu but very limited as the community is smaller, while suffering from core issues that exists in Ubuntu.
That was my expectation too but at least the period in early LEAP 15, I migrated to TW and I saw emacs break once but nothing critical over the past 4 years.
I started out with Linux on Suse 8 I believe. I just stuck with it after that. Never had a complaint.
One of the best virtues of openSUSE is its community, trying to help when asked for help.
Before openSUSE I was on Arch and left that distro not only because of its instability 
I thing the things that make me love opensuse its just for her stability because its more eficient to game and work
For me: btrfs + snapper OOTB, excellent KDE Integration/Support, rolling means always very recent packages (I’m on TW) while still incredibly stable and the community is great.
As someone in the hosting industry, I have used Centos through the terminal for many years. My personal computer has always had Windows.
A few months ago, I thought I was bored with Windows and started researching Linux distributions for my personal computer.
According to the answers I gave on Distrochooser and distrochooserbutbetter sites, they said that the most logical distribution for me was Opensuse, and then here I am and I love this distribution very much.
The only problem for now is that my capslock button reacts late 
MY EYES, THEY BURN
That looks really good, not gonna lie.
Sorry, ALP should have something for everyone but under a single distro. At least that’s how I thought of it.
Mind sharing the wallpaper? 
Thanks!
I like the concept of rolling-release with everything just updating as-is, continuously! Arch was too-annoying for me to deal with after the 2nd reinstall, and I liked that openSUSE also had AppArmor out-the-box.
And now I get Plasma 6 in flagship-fashion! I used to use Fedora primarily and stopped using RPM Fusion after their questionable mesa-freeworld implementation, so I also had no HW accelerated video. I really enjoy that intel-media-driver is in the default openSUSE repos, along with Steam, and I’m super surprised at DevilutionX, Xonotic, and Doomsday Engine also being available and up-to-date!
I got my homelab back on Tumbleweed last night, installed KDE on my laptop today (after being on Windows after issues with GNOME), and everything is going well!
The first thing I found interesting was that Plasma was defaulting to a X11 session; I’ve only heard things about it being unsupported and deprecated with Plasma 6, and Fedora 40 also only has Wayland by-default. I switched it to Wayland on oS, ran into the taskbar not updating something, and within 5 minutes switched back to X11 and figured it was defaulted to for a reason 
Everything’s been great on the X11 Plasma 6 session so far with Intel UHD 630, but one thing I’d like to figure out is how to set Full RGB mode over HDMI. On GNOME it worked and seemed proper-enough with a bash script in PostLogin. I’m pretty sure I saw a GUI option on F40’s Plasma 6 Wayland session and I’m thinking that’s only supported from Wayland (I don’t see it from X11). I’m pretty sure I can just use the same script on Plasma 6 but need an ideal place to put it; anyone have any info about this?
You should start your own topic in the appropriate category if you would like to seek help with some of the issues you describe.
My first Linux attempt was using SUSE back in 1997. I didn’t really use it, because I wanted to use Red Hat. Which I did and after sometime I used Mandrake which was followed by PCLinuxOS after Mandriva when down. After going through Mint KDE → FerenOS, I finally ended up with Tumbleweed when I bought a new laptop (Legion 5) and non of the Ubuntu based distros worked. Tumbleweed just made itself comfortable with all the hardware in this laptop. I have been simply updating it since 2020.
There were two things that were keeping me from using openSuSe, first is that Yast doesn’t create private user group. Second was printing. YAST could never get any of my network printers to work properly. That has all changed now. Everything works like a champ.
And this is one of the reasons I’ll stick with Leap until the end:
Hi @ingordin !
I switched all my repo URLs like openSUSE-Distribution-OSS to openSUSE-Distribution-OSS, i.e. mirrorcache for eu (=Europe) and specially COUNTRY=de (=Germany).
You could try some appropriate country code from Mirrors Report - openSUSE Download like:
mirrorcache-eu (Europe)mirrorcache-eu (Europe)mirrorcache (rest of the world, here Asia)mirrorcache (rest of the world, here Asia)mirrorcache (rest of the world, here Asia)
