  • Tried Fedora, tried Ubuntu, tried Mint, tried Debian, tried flavors of Arch that don’t make the install process take an hour.

    They all suck compared to openSUSE Tumbleweed. Rolling release with good hardware support out of the box and snapshots/easy rollback coupled with extensive testing before each release? It’s the winner for beginners, and it’s not even close.

    The first time a user gets the itch to learn Linux and go deeper and borks their install, they will hate any distro without snapshotting.

    The first time an immutable distro user needs to install OEM drivers, they will hate their distro.

    I used to recommend Linux Mint, and I still would maybe to those I know will never ever open the console.

    For everyone else, openSUSE Tumbleweed all day everyday and twice on Sunday.
