I went through the minimal Tumbleweed install in a VM just to have a feel of what OpenSuse is today (last time I tried was something like 15 years ago
).
I started with a minimal X (default to icewm), then tried my beloved i3wm and then installed KDE Plasma.
Here's my, totally subjective Debian user, first look opinion:
Tumbleweed is a "complete" system, it brings a lot of packages in a minimal install that are not pulled when doing a minimal install in Debian.
This fact doesn't play very well with users wanting a minimal installation like me. There are so many OpenSuse tools that get installed, like Yast, it looks really feature rich, but I'm not used anymore to Jack-of-all-trades GUIs.
It begins to have sense when installing a DE like KDE, then it starts to look and play nicer.
Geekos DAW installation is really 1-click, one of the best and easy repo installation I've seen (and I'm not a fan of 1-clik install).
Love the Airwindows plugins downloader script, is a nice addition.
Went through the repos and you guys did something cool there, lots and lots of packages, updated to the latest versions (mostly). Amazing!
As far I played with Tumbleweed looks like a good Linux experience and Geekos DAW repos are better than I expected.
At the end I'm not going to switch to Tumbleweed but I will continue to look on how things will evolve on this side of Linux.
