  • I just recently learned that openSUSE users also have a lot of stability due to btrfs snapshots, so maybe that’s really the feature I’m looking for. I don’t know much about it, honestly.

    I’m been daily driving openSUSE Tumbleweed for almost a year and from my end there are no problems with it. In fact, no problem that can be pinned to the particular distro.

    I ran into an audio issue with my Bluetooth Headset in Kernel 6.9 3, with sound profiles not appearing. However, this has now been fixed since 2 kernel updates, (eg.it was a bug in the kernel)

    The snapshot feature is awesome and always worked without a hitch when I have been tinkering with stuff I dont know how it works.

    It has my recommendation. Good for gaming as its a rolling release with all the new stuff to boot.

















  • When I installed Tumbleweed not so long ago, I also had problems. The installer is notorious for giving you an unusable system sometimes, even when using the defaults.

    I have been running Tumbleweed “stock” on my desktop for about 10 months now and truth to be told I never had a problem with it, including updates. Rock stable with a nice snapshot feature as a safety net.

    That’s why I’ll wait to install Kalpa on the desktop. Just no reason for it.

    I have of course run into bugs but those came from KDE. Can’t really blame Tumbleweed for those.

    In fact, Tumbleweed is the reason I went all in with Linux and ditched dual booting Windows, as I had been bit pretty hard early on my linux journey with other distros and made me think twice using Linux as a daily-reliable-driver.
