First, let me be clear up front that I’m not promoting the idea that there should be one “universal” Linux distro. With all the various distros out there for consumers, there’s lots of discussion about Arch, Debian, and Fedora (and their various descendant projects), but I rarely see much talk about openSUSE.
Why might somebody choose that one over the others? What features or vision distinguishes it from the others?
Edit: I love all the answers! Great stuff. Thanks to everyone!
Not that much, Yast deals with the system, the Kde settings deal with the desktop. There isn’t that much overlap.
I think there is. KDE settings deal with Bluetooth, devices etc. Discover deals with repos and more.
Every time I’ve tried to use discover it was a mess. I think you can use it if you use nothing else, or you’re better off forgetting about it entirely.
I use it with Fedora Atomic KDE, rpm-ostree is not meant for that and a pain to use so I remove the package.
The Flatpak integration doesnt use PackageKit and works well, but it doesnt display the data nicely and is too slow. GNOME software is way better for Flatpaks, COSMIC Apps is way faster.
It is useful for fwupd but at the same time a bit bulky for that.
It is also a frontend for all the KDE Extensions and works very well here.
