Tumbleweed is amazing but after XZ and dealing with 3rd party repos for basic stuff such as codecs, I'm switching to ubuntu to minimize the attack surface.

is slow as frick and takes 20 minutes to do that
What the frick are you people talking about? It's exactly the same as any other package manager. I haven't noticed any slowness and I use openSUSE, Debian and Arch on different machines. Are you fetching your packages from Antarctica or something?
Richard Browns posts are funny to read, honestly just as good as ebussy. Also his design choices on Aeon are pretty laughable. Microos is neat but I'd never expect any of the premade desktop flavors to be worth a shit.
The only issue I ran into was for some reason slow roll and micros Nvidia repos were pulled in, but that was easy to fix with sudo zypper rm openSUSE-repos-Slowroll-NVIDIA openSUSE-repos-MicroOS-NVIDIA. Other than that my only complaints is the Plasma 6 compositor like every other distro.
until it doesn't
worst distribution award
never tried Tumbleweed, but if you want a stable distro and are too lazy for setting up Debian (drivers etc), Leap is perfect (YaST is pretty n1one)
backdoored

unfortunately i will do this too. i'll take snaps over literally who packagers.
Snaps aren't mandatory, I know it's obvious but people act like they are.
yes there is a guide to completely remove them
You don't even need to remove snap support entirely, just remove Firefox/Thunderbird and get the deb or flatpak.
>zypper is awful and slow
>yast sucks
>repos are barren
>installer is dogshit
yeah no
I'd consider leap for a server though
is awful and slow

openSNEED
but I want to use ext4 and they don't allow me
Anon you can choose ext4 in the installer. You don't have to use Btrfs.
i prefer nixos
Not if you are conservative apparently.
They can remove my software from the official repos but they can never remove me from theirs YWNBAW
So sorry that ONE Suse employee said something mean about you. If you need a hug, let me know <3

I can't go back now after enjoying snapper + yast + rolling plasma
>backdoored
no thanks
Fixed on the same day.
same day it was discovered or same day it made it to the repos
either way I don't care

Blotead? Yes. But works and killed my distrohopping.
It's underrated, we should just stop worrying about "bloat" since bloat is what makes it work.
