  • To compare the software in this project to the software available in other distributions, please see our Compare Packages page.
  • Notes: In case where multiple versions of a package are shipped with a distribution, only the default version appears in the table. For indication about the GNOME version, please check the "nautilus" and "gnome-shell" packages. The Apache web server is listed as "httpd" and the Linux kernel is listed as "linux". The KDE desktop is represented by the "plasma-desktop" package and the Xfce desktop by the "xfdesktop" package.
  • Colour scheme: green text = latest stable version, red text = development or beta version. The function determining beta versions is not 100% reliable due to a wide variety of versioning schemes.

 OpenSUSE is a bit like a "cruise ship" to me:

It's a very stable distribution, with a beautiful design, well-documented, and with a very ergonomic and complete graphical administration tool Yast.

This distribution's main flaw is that it's too heavy: it takes up a lot of disk space, uses a lot of memory, and takes a long time to boot, especially if you're using the Plasma desktop.

The update times for the Tumbleweed version are very long for me. This is not due to the repository, but rather to the slower zypper update system and the very high number of packages installed by default in the OS.

As for the Leap version, it contains very few applications in its repository, so the user is forced to complement it by manually installing applications from the OpenSuse Build Service, which is tedious and time-consuming."

 All the family & close friends on Tumbleweed, myself & wife for over 10 years with Opensuse variants.
In the first year there was a problem with disc full until I learnt about snapshots. Since then not a single crash.
Tumbleweed is a Great product. easy to use (my wife switched fron windows XP and I setup icons to look like windows.
After learning Gimp movie editing programs ()many good programs) she's been content & happy with it.
For myself I set up wine for games & virtualbox from the repository for the odd occasion of cad programs while I learnt the linux alternatives.

 I have been using openSUSE tumbleweed for a year and a half. I love the rolling aspect of it but also the stability of it. I have been a Linux user for over 20 years and by far this is this is by far my best experience with a Linux based OS. Though I have primarily used Ubuntu based distros, I have tested other distros such as Fedora, openSUSE, Manjaro, and even Arch BTW, with those I really didn't get the hype about the. I had too many issues with the disjointed issues of Ubuntu based distros that I finally decided to give something else a try I shot for Fedora but that was almost a non starter so I came to openSUSE tumbleweed and here I feel like I have struck not just gold but actually platinum. I feel that the forums are not so hostile or gatekeeperish. So if I were to recommend a Linux distro to anyone it would be openSUSE of any shape or size. Professional grade service and care.
