>>107689921There is no bad (major) distro. OpenSUSE has it's place, same as Arch, Fedora, Debian, Ubuntu, etc. It's certainly not as popular as it once was in terms of marketshare, but it offers a solid KDE experience and the last time I used it, I liked YaST.
>>107689921it's nice
It's whatever reallyYaST lets you install a lot of packages on the installation processIt's also "bloated" in the sense that if you don't untick a box it will install a lot of recommended packagesIt sets up btrfs+snapshots by default with a sane subvolume layout, something CachyOS does nowFrom what I can remember they forgot about a few DEs, for a while you couldn't have up to date Cinnamon at leastCodecs are not installed but it's even easier than Fedora thereOccasionally, TW is more up to date than Arch (used to happen a lot with GNOME/GTK packages, but a current example is Darktable, 5.4 is stuck on testing repos on Arch, but it's already accessible on TW)That all said, some of the default applications and fixes are really old shit nobody needs, I found it awful to install nvidia drivers on it, opi is garbage and openSUSE may label you as rotten flesh if you think differently from them, that was a thing too
Nevermind, YaST is deprecated, it seems there's a good reason why nobody talks about it
>>107689921It's bad. Modifies software from the upstream too much. That alone is the reason not to use OpenSUSE and why it isn't popular
open... what?
>>107689921It's actually great, yast and snapper are fantastic tools, and if suse was the target for docker, or if declarative configs were a bit more mature then I'd probably use it for everything
