Sir Osis of Liver 🇨🇦 🇲🇽I had heard something about this quite some time ago.
I think at the time the preference was Ubuntu, is that still the case?
Regardless, good policy.

#OpenSUSE would be more european and open source.
@Sir_Osis_of_Liver @linuxiac Leap 16.0 builds on its hybrid approach of combining source from SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE) with community developments, delivering a level of stability unmatched by other Linux distributions.
Emvee@Sir_Osis_of_Liver @bhasic @linuxiac I started experimenting with Linux for exactly the same reason – mainly out of frustration at having to throw away a perfectly good laptop. I tried KDE, Zorin and Mint, and ended up sticking with Mint. It works great and is very stable.
It was a real eye-opener to try out other things as well, such as LibreOffice, OnlyOffice, Thunderbird, ProtonMail, Tutamail, Vivaldi, Librewolf, Qwant and LeChat. A fun journey of discovery.
