Here are some other reasons why you should try @opensuse Tumbleweed.
1. It's a rolling-release distribution; that means new software is released continuously. You always have the latest software from #devs #contributors without having to reinstall your OS.
2. It is stable and reliable, despite being a rolling-release distribution. This is because #openSUSE Tumbleweed uses #openQA to ensure that new software is compatible with the existing system.
3. #openSUSE #Tumbleweed is easy to use.
