Is anyone using openSUSE here? Any thoughts?

OpenSUSE seems to be a distro that literally everyone has had positive experiences with, but don't use as their primary for some reason.
Its my second favorite distro behind Gentoo.

It has a lot of GUI tools, maybe thats why the elitist avoid it. Who knows.

LEAP is broken, everyone left
just go for LMDE, it's literally the same thing

It's big and fat. The ISO just barely fits on a DVD. Slow, too; requires a reasonably new computer to run well.
But it's really comfy. It's one of the best looking distros out of the box. YaST makes admin job 2ez. Zypper is a deliciously good package manager and if you're in Yuurop, you get the benefit of Fedora/CentOS in that you're running the almost-the-enterprise-distro-companies-use. Also you can make nice things with SUSE studio.

Yes, a Debian-based home user distro is literally the same as an RPM-based testbed enterprise distro.
Opensuse sucks ass on 8/20 servers and we luckily use debian everytime we start a new one.
Really I have had only bad experiences with it. Random things break, shitpackages are being way older than they should, etc. The only good thing is yast2 in terminal, but anyways why use this if you know how to use apt. Sorry if someone likes opensuse, use it because it is kinda good and kinda stable if you never touch it after setting it up, but I never had luck using it.

The reason is KDE. It works gud on openSUSE but not many people prefer it.
Leaving this here

I've considered using OpenSUSE, but apparently they don't hurry to implement Wayland, so I'm going KDE Fedora instead.

Elaborate.

I'm a winfag primarily because it just werks. But I always default to OpenSUSE when I need linux. Always have a virtual machine available with it. I guess I like it so much because of KDE and that I use the enterprise version at work a decade or so ago.
