The Steam Deck was the reason I changed. Used the Deck as my only PC for a couple of months and liked the experience so I changed.
I've had OpenSUSE on my PC for over a year now and really like it..... But I'll be honest, the move and troubleshooting problems for setup was a pain in the ass. But it's stable and steady since I've gotten over setup pains.
I hear you. I spent a while switching to OpenSUSE too because it seemed so easy, I've installed OSs plenty!
But I like to partition and stuff, and have a lot of drives from over the years. Oh, what filesystem? Well geeze that might as well be an epic RPG's "choose a name" screen!
Now it's easy: Their perfectly fine default of BTRFS because snapshots and I might try dedup, thank you very much. Lol but I still feel like I had to wade through way too much to reach that conclusion.
Once it's installed and configured though? Man, everything I throw at it is just fine. Love my Tumbleweed. Haven't looked back in like 4 years. :)
Tumbleweed brotherhood β
It doesn't get used or recommended enough.
Tumbleweed.π
Although for my relatives I'll rather recommend Slowroll once it's our of beta (or even Leap for older family members). Just that little bit more stable. π Still, OpenSuse does a fantastic job. I'd love to see them available directly from device vendors like Tuxedo, System76 or hell, even Framework.
