I don't know, I use Debian and it just works. No point in using SUZE, really.

OpenMeme Smokeweed is the best distro. I had it installed for one year without problems.

>buh my repo size

just use flatpaks, appimages or make install.

My only gripe is the sheer carelessness when it comes to the open NVIDIA driver.

I'm interested in their slowroll option, I come from a debian background so slowroll kind of appeals to me.

I've suffered enough with nvidia these last few years on gnu/linux that I now avoid it when getting new hardware.

I didn't have any issues up until they started the open driver they keep having the software stack mismatched which is incompetence on their end tired of getting cuda version mismatches ever other month or even less

Tumbleweed has always been solid for me, but I wonder whether itโ€™s pointless once YaST is gone.

Tumbleweed is extremely stable for a rolling release distro. I was too much of a pussy to install Arch so I tried Tumbleweed and it works great. Way stabler than Sid or Arch or Fedora Rawhide.

Didn't know rawhide was a thing.
Arch isn't bad desu, but as for sid, it was never meant to be used as a daily driver.

A lot of people use Sid as a daily driver, the official Debian devs do not recommend for daily use but people use it anyway (with all the risks it has).

Fedora Rawhide is unusable, it's mostly a testing ground for the next distro, it's not supposed to use as a daily driver because it's extremely unstable. But if you want, you can try it.

working on redoing my homelab with nixos + nixos-anywhere. I just wish nixos had better documentation; kept me on
arch for way too long, desu.

When I get a normal installation I'm presented with a lot of shit I don't need that's also ancient and kept being alive for no good reason. Half of YaST looks like it hasn't been updated in ages for anything but compatibility and bugfixes. It's weirdly put together. They also abandoned some desktops. I don't think anyone cared about maintaining Cinnamon in there, it was like 10 years behind.
The only thing I liked about this was OBS.
