Maybe, i don’t know, but iam more willing to buy something else or refurbished atm.

I dont know, but more important for me it looks like some support openly DHHs ideology. Whitout any shame.

As long as my current setup works i won’t change anything, but yes, Asahi and a used/refurbished Apple product could be a solid choice in the future.

Seems like my next CPU/GPU won’t be AMD. How is Apple doing lately?

No Tumbleweed, don’t like it 😅 (Nice idea of course)

I see Tumbleweed, i like it.

Firefox Klar works with Safari for me.

It is possible to lock packages an those would not be reinstalled, even if they are part of a pattern - zypper rm foo, zypper al foo, thats it. Yes, the list of addlocked packages could be long depending on the starting point. But users have full control over everything what gets installed in the first place.

I have decided i don’t care much about patterns. There is no perfect distribution, but tumbleweed is pretty close for me.

You don’t have to use patterns on Tumbleweed (and maybe Slowroll also?), if you don’t like them. It’s just a handy shortcut to get most, but not all, relevant packages.

use what you like and fits your needs.

mailbox.org and posteo.de are both german too.

Just a few words, Tumbleweed is great but fast moving – if you can’t find something in the Wiki ask at the Forum, there is a bunch of helpful people.

My Experience with Gnome and KDE was good, but i use Xfce for a while and do most common things like installing, upgrades and so on using the Terminal. Looks like Myrlyn is a good GUI Option for this too, but i can’t say anything about it from own experience.

Oh, and yes, snapper has got you covered if something goes wrong during upgrades. Just don’t forget to do backups, just in case.

Whatever you do, have fun.

Oh okay, sounds weird indeed and not normal. I use Tumbleweed and its mostly smooth sailing, after a steep learning curve for me. You should be good with Mint, there is not much difference between Distributions for Causal Gaming. Newer Hardware can be a show stopper with not so up to date Distributions.

Out of interest, which openSUSE distribution did you use?
