Overall Satisfaction with openSUSE Tumbleweed
openSUSE Tumbleweed is used as a workstation product for developers. It is suitable for us as it offers a wide range of software packages, tested, and close to the latest release.
It allows us to stay on top of the latest hardware support and also make it simple and painless to develop containerised workloads, in comparison to alternative operating systems.
- Frequent software updates
- Simplified rollback in case of upgrade problems
- Great container-based development support
- Frequent package updates sometimes break proprietary programs
- Transactional updates
- Up-to-date kernel versions
- Podman for containers support
- Faster turnaround in container-based development
- Less effort in integrating the latest versions of development tools
openSUSE Tumbleweed is a fast-moving and quick-updating Linux distribution. It aims to deliver the latest versions of software packages while being automatically tested before each release. openSUSE Leap has a slower release face and is more suited for users looking to use a certain vetted set of packages which only receive bug fixes.
