Why isn't OpenSUSE more popular?

Nice wallpaper senpai

because everyone understands Mint is the way to go

...

Mint is sooooooo boring.

But mint is a buggy piece of shit.
It's less stable than Fedora, which is extremely disappointing.

I keep trying to like openSUSE because it's so nice out of the box, but for some reason YaST just never sits well with me. GNOME has it's own settings menu, it has a "tweak tool", it has it's own software center, why do I need the uglier YaST versions also?

Do people actually have stability issues with Fedora, or do they just assume because it's "the testbed for RedHat" that it's somehow beta software?

I've been using it for a few years now as my daily OS and I have yet to have any hint of stability problems.

Link to that wallpaper? Is it available in 1440p?

>buggy
guess everyone is using buggy shit

Hello

I've been using Fedora and mint since f22/lm17.1 and mint is way dodgier overall.

Fedora is less crashy and more stable, using only that for my computers since 2 weeks ago

I want to run tumbleweed but the faq says you shouldn't if you want to use proprietary nvidia drivers

Yeah, it's weird. I keep seeing "less stable than Fedora" when I've literally never had stability issues with Fedora.

>not using AMD on Linux
Are you okay?

So what you're saying is that mint is less stable than Fedora. Because fedora is stable.

That's because Fedora can be unstable because it's the testing grounds for red hat, but in general it's a great distro that runs fine

Distrowatch statistics aren't based on usage, they're based on how many people look at the distro on their website. The more people click on that Mint name right there, the higher it would be.

I don't have bug issues on Mint, personally, but I have a very deep dislike for the idea that people suggest it to new users while it doesn't have a graphical way to upgrade between versions yet. You really expect a "new user" to drop to TTY, edit their sources list, and repeatedly throw upgrade commands until their system is up to date?

People don't want to wipe their system every time a new version comes out, but people are also too stupid to use backups.

No, I was just questioning the phrase, I have no comment on Mint I don't use it.

you must be new here
