  • … that is def not my case, openSUSE is saving me a lot of time.

    I’ve switched all my fiends & family (desktops) to Tumbleweed like 5 years ago bcs I don’t have to do any maintenance ever (not even customisation at the beginning, beyond setting them accounts). It has always been stable with exception that they only became “almost” out-of-the-box gaming friendly only in recent year or two.

    Tumbleweed is just there, always updated, and feels nice. Oh, it’s not the quickest boot maybe?

    Previously (15+ years, maybe 20 my parents) I had my family on Debians/Ubuntus which were stable but always very fiddly to distro upgrade, I don’t even remember what went wrong with old Fedora, but I changed it back in less than a year (almost 10 years ago, not relevant).






  • Yeah, nowdays DEs embedded customisation options cover so must of their default user-base needs that they are basically fully automatic rice cookers.

    And that is how open sauce works, it develops over time according to needs, not based on boardroom needs, monetization-focused panel research, and constant UI changes just for the sake of it.

    And there are still the basically provided options for even any deep ricing needs if you want to do so.
