      Everything made sense but OpenSuse, what up with German made stuff?

        Some people don’t like things that are well made and organized in a sensible manner?

          Like sudo requiring you to use the root password?

          Isn’t one of the principal reasons sudo exists is so you DONT need to know or use the root password to perform root-level tasks?

          It’s an idiotic choice on OpenSUSE’s part IMO.

            As far as I remember, sudo ask for the user password, not the root one.

            It is “su -c [some_command]” that ask for the root password.

            You can modify the settings to get passwordless sudo.

              Of course you can. My point is, it’s a ridiculous decision on OpenSUSE’s part to ship it this way in the first place.

          Was going to comment similar. it has all thinks thought about and tweaked so it runa great and functions like it should. Maybe they didn’t enjoy system rollbacks and GUI admin?

          It’s made by Germans, not lawyers.

      I don’t like OpenSuse because when you install and administer it, you can feel it was made by Germans.

      What does that mean?

          Ok, could you give an example? I never used OpenSUSE, just curious.

            Yast. I love zypper and opi but yast is super weird. Like if you want to do things that you can do with yast, you probably know how to do it on terminal.

      Or so the Germans would have us believe.

      I don’t like Mint because it’s just Ubuntu with even more stuff added.

      Mint removes snaps and card games and replaces some GNOME utility apps like image viewer, video player, store etc. with its own apps. Mint also comes with additional apps like Hypnotix, Transmission, Hexchat, Timeshift but worst case they need additional disk space. Like 500 MiB maximum in a 10+ GiB install. I wouldn’t consider these apps “bloat”.

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.
