    I got OpenSuse. I currently use bazzite and I’ve tried popOS and mint. I guess I could try it.

      It has a learning curve for the Graphical Package Manager, but YAST GUI is awesome. The automatic snapshots are great; if any thing you do breaks the system you just boot to w previous snapshot in the advanced boot option, then if it is allworksing as expected issue a sudo snapper rollback command to make your current snapshot the default.

        That is really a good feature especially if you like to try out things, change stuff and tinker around.

        What makes OpenSUSE Tumbleweed also a very interesting alternative for experienced users is the quality of a fast rolling release together with automated testing and QA, which I think no other distribution has. Together with a community which takes security serious, this gives you a both very up to date and quite secure system.

          Yep, I ran Leap from 2017 till 2024 same system, updates were so stable you could depend on them. And nVidia hosts its own repo for Leap and Tumbleweed. I moved to Tumbleweed when I changed hardware, so for the past year it’s been solid

      I don’t generally recommend opensuse. The package management always made me go back to arch or debian. I would recommend trying it if you have a spare pc or space for a vm though.
