Hear me out, the mascot is a freaking chameleon, that's cool as shit man.

Also it's a German engineered distro, German engineering wins again!

Zypper is just a funnier name for a package manager and it has Tumbleweed which is arch but actually doesn't break for once!

🤦

"MY FAVORITE SPORTSBALL TEAM IS THE BEST!!!"

Can we just moderate these posts?

This post seems lighthearted and not mean-spirited. I do wish they said "awesome" or "great" instead of "the best," but they're not trashing other distros and it is relevant so I don't see the problem.

At least it's those positive things. From the influx of newcomers here, I just hate that they see posts like this before than can objectively see the field for the trees.

If this entire sub becomes "OMG THIS IS THE BEST", it's going to be nothing but noise real fucking fast.

Do we have a linux circle jerk community yet? If not, that might help.

[-] bsergay@discuss.online 7 points 3 months ago

I would normally 100% agree with you. But if it's an underrated distro, then I tend to be more lean on this. However, I agree that OP should have done a better job at 'advertising' openSUSE. For example; not mentioning YaST is just criminal.

Then JUST say that. You don't need to be out here making insane and absolute statements.

[-] bsergay@discuss.online 6 points 3 months ago

I think I agree with the other commenter that you should just take a break.

[-] just_another_person@lemmy.world -5 points 3 months ago

Start a fanboy sub then? The noise ratio here is already way too loud.

[-] bsergay@discuss.online 3 points 3 months ago

I definitely hope that the noise ration will improve (by the amount of noise decreasing) over time. But, as it stands, the community is still relatively small. I get your grievances, but I honestly don't know what the best set of directives would be.

[-] InternetCitizen2@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

So what should this community talk about then?

[-] earmuff@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 months ago

Maybe you should take a break.

[-] Tekkip20@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

That person should take a break, I'm just jostling you know, bit of tomfoolery and joking around.

It's almost like some people like that user should eat some snickers and read a book on bunny rabbits or something

[-] earmuff@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 months ago

Don’t worry, almost everyone did get the joke and it was funny imho.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
