Why openSUSE? (reddthat.com)
submitted 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago) by Telorand@reddthat.com to c/linux@programming.dev
 

First, let me be clear up front that I'm not promoting the idea that there should be one "universal" Linux distro. With all the various distros out there for consumers, there's lots of discussion about Arch, Debian, and Fedora (and their various descendant projects), but I rarely see much talk about openSUSE.

Why might somebody choose that one over the others? What features or vision distinguishes it from the others?

Edit: I love all the answers! Great stuff. Thanks to everyone!

What up with the fedora EULA?

Fedoras is ok, but they don't offer commercial support that is handled by RedHat with their derived commercial disttos.
