I wish I wouldโ€™ve known that before I made it my permanent distro! Itโ€™s the first distro to actually get me to stop trying others and really buckle down and learn. Iโ€™ve learned a lot, but still consider myself very much a Linux noob!

    I mean, SuSE does have a lot of tools that simplify maintenance tasks, so may be it's not that bad for beginners. Honestly, I've used it for soo oops long (decades...) that I've just got used to the way things work. I'm conscious of that, though, so I don't recommend SuSE for beginners. I don't play games, so I really don't know if it's a good choice.

    There are hiccups with games every now and then, but for the most part, they work well enough through Steam and Proton! Getting things to work in Lutris/Heroic on the other hand, have not gone very far on my machine. I'm probably not understanding something, or the myriad options they provide (I barely touch them) causes me to mess something up unintentionally.

    It's a solid distro though, stable as can be, so that's the real reason I choose to stick with it! If I have enough of a headache (running a KVM for tiny11 so that I can sideload my YouTube app on my iPhone, running a game, or running some save editor/program installer that isn't playing nicely with the VM), I just move back over to my separate tiny11 SSD and do it there, and if I can, move it to the openSUSE SSD.

    I don't require a lot, but then at the same time, it feels like I'm such a niche person for the operating system (Linux) sometimes. :')
