This is probably an excellent operating system - it has a LOT of choices to be made during installation,
and more that can be made afterwards.
However, as these choices require one to know what they are talking about, and HOW to make the choices,
I don't feel like this is an OS for beginners.
I am not a total beginner as I have been "playing" with several OS's in recent years, and as soon as
Windows 10 is no longer supported I will no longer play Microsoft's game of "give me more money."
However, even tho I was a mainframe programmer, including assembler, I don't feel inclined to get into
the nuts and bolts of Linux.
My old computer will not allow W11, so soon I will ONLY run LINUX.
I just don't think it will be this one.
On a positive note, openSUSE does include Libre Office, which I feel is important.
On a negative note, I was able to download CHROME, but could not figure out how to install it.
ALSO, BE WARNED, when you install openSUSE, it may completely clear your hard drive and take it all.
It warned me it wanted to do this, and I MAY have been able to do otherwise, but I couldn't figure it out.
Other OS's usually offer to let you wipe and go, or else install alongside an existing OS.

Ryzen 9 -3900X - 12 Core mit 128 MB RAM
Asus RogStrix X-570E
Bin nicht PC-Programmierer, nur Anwender.
Früher hatte ich grosse Probleme beim installieren von
älteren Suse Versionen.
Im Jahr 2020 versuchte ich es mit Suse Tubleweed KDE und es
funktioniert bis heute sehr gut. Dieses OS wird sehr oft aktualisiert,
bis zu 3 x pro Woche, deshalb ein sehr sicheres OS.
Es läuft sehr stabil und die Upgrades gelingen problemlos.
Ich benutze die Programme Firefox, Thunderbird, Clementine und
Proton VPN.
Unbedingt testen.
Negativ : Bei der Webseite von Suse muss man english verstehen,
obschon ursprünglich ein DEUTSCHES Linux, schade.

Motherboard is Asus Rogstrix X-570E
I'm not a PC programmer, only user.
I used to have big problems with installing
Older Suse versions.
In 2020 I tried Suse Tubleweed KDE and it
still works very well until 2023. This OS is very often updated
Up to 3 times a week, therefore a very safe OS.
It runs very stable and the upgrades are easy.
I use the programs Firefox, Thunderbird, Clementine and
Proton VPN.
Be sure to test it.
Negative: on the website of Suse you have to understand English,
although originally a German Linux, not so nice.

I staring Linux from Slackware then Suse Linux 8x with hard print book
Pros:
1. Yast !! 2. BuildService 3. BTRFS with Snapper as default 4.Documentation
Cos:
1. memory eater KDE as default WM (use XFCE :) )
Daily i use Open Suse 15.4 Debian 11 also Mint 21 and Windows 10 on the same PC also for home OpenMediaVault 6.x and FreeNAS in work.
SuSe is good choice for desktop app and Linux server's. Using Yast you can simplify administration task in Linux. especially when you switch from Windows OS. Also now Leap uses source from SUSE Linux Enterprise (SLE), this give me extra trust for stability.
What i don,t like is (not only in SuSe but other Linux distribution) just leaving unresolved bug's and hurry up to release new version.
