      No, I think it’s saying that opensuse breeds Linux distros, and is trying to get Debian and arch to rub cloacas.

      Also, opensuse once bit off a little chunk of someone’s ear.

          Arch is relatively great, but anyone who’s used it for a while has had what should of been a simple update turn into a giant headache. Debian can minimize headaches but you give up the latest software for it. OpenSUSE just feels like the middle ground. You can run the latest software and spend less time sifting through forums because of an update. As a bonus you can always fall back on RPM packages, which can give a tiny bit more software compatibility than the AUR.

          IMO OpenSUSE is what Manjaro wants to be lol

            To be fair, OpenSuse is an umbrella of multiple distros other than Debian and Arch. There are

            • Leap (Stable, binary-compatible to SLES)
            • Tumbleweed (Rolling)
            • Slowroll (Rolling but slower, duh)
            • Aeon (Immutable w/ Gnome)
            • Kalpa (Immutable w/ KDE)
            • Factory (unstable)
            • MicroOS (Immutable for Server)
            • Leap Micro (Immutable, binary-compatible to SLES)

            And then of course the whole Enterprise stuff around SLES (Suse Linux Enterprise Server). There’s definitely a need to specify what “OpenSuse” actually means in any given context. 😅

            I agree though, it’s god damn great. The bootable btrfs snapshots that are set up by default in particular.

    Not sure why I laughed so hard when I read “kith”, I get it but don’t see why it’s so funny to me, yet my body felt like it was what it had to do

    Tumble me weeds,
    Open me SUSE!

    It’s truly a great distro & my default desktop recommendation for low maintenance.
