The peculiar thing is that it even sounds stupid in its original German. It sounds similar to the kindergarten-level insult "Heulsuse" which roughly means "whiny sissy".

Still the distro I use on most of my systems.

I mean, alright if you insist! Sounds like a fun date idea.

I want to like Tumbleweed, but every time I check for updates there's like a gigabyte of them. I am probably going to switch to Leap at certain point. I don't understand what's the point of having latest stuff anyway. Unless you are gaming on your device I guess.

RiQuY@lemm.ee · 3 pts · 1y

Having the latest software and not having to worry about reinstalling the OS every major release is the main point of Rolling Release.

If you want less updates and your are fine not having the most recent software you are good using a fixed point release OS like Fedora or similar. Although you are not forced to update openSUSE very often, you can do it once a month or if you know there was a recent CVE fix.

Seconded. Have been running it on both my main desktop and laptop for five years with no issues.

Sure.

I run Tumbleweed, but people are free to do their thing.

Have you tried that other one? Slowroll? I forget what it's called. It's like tumbleweed but with monthly releases instead of constant.

nailbar@sopuli.xyz · 2 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Thanks for reminding me about it! I might try that for my third computer, which I wouldn't update as often anyway. The others run Arch and Tumbleweed.

JackbyDev@programming.dev · 2 pts · 1y

It sounds really appealing! I wish it wasn't considered experimental or I'd consider it for my daily driver.

AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

I didn't. Last time I looked, it was still in the early stages.

And you don't actually have to upgrade daily. I often wait a couple weeks or more and the machines don't care one way or the other.

Leap

JackbyDev@programming.dev · 1 pts · 1y (2 replies)

No, that's their normal one that's not rolling.

Manzas@lemdro.id · 1 pts · 1y (1 reply)

There are two editions leap or tumbleweed

JackbyDev@programming.dev · 2 pts · 1y

Slowroll is new and still experimental, but it's a third option.

Why tho, OpenSUSE has yast, and a way better package manager than fedora

Probably popularity but you can use fedora packages on opensuse

Fedora is RedHat. RedHat is IBM.

IBM is supporting Israel and the IDF in their genocide.

Use OpenSUSE.

funkajunk@lemm.ee · 28 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Haha, what?

Every single product you use could be linked to Israel with logic like this.

cypherpunks@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 1y

RedHat was a major military contractor with job postings like this current one [archive] long before they were bought by another older and larger military contractor.
