- yellowapple 10y agoEspecially the ones about openSUSE's supposed inadequacies. openSUSE is my distro of choice for computer users switching away from Windows XP, and I've had very few problems with it even on Tumbleweed, let alone any Leap version. YaST alone is a killer feature; zero other distros (AFAIK; I'd happy to be corrected here) have anything like it. The DE might have something to do with it, though; I typically set people up with Xfce, whereas KDE - as fantastic as it may be - can be a little overwhelming for new users. The complaints about Fedora are spot-on, though, even if lacking specificity in this article. Every time I've used Fedora, it's been a nightmare of kernel panicking/oopsing and weird user-facing software bugs that are just plain absent even on other "bleeding-edge" distros on the same hardware.
