    I don’t get the Germany part, and I’m German

        I know, but I don’t get the joke. We don’t do these around here

          I think it means that OpenSUSE is “all of the above”—stability, flexibility, security—because those are qualities frequently attributed to German things/products.

          It isn’t really a joke in the sense of it making fun of Germany or anything like that.

        SUSE was a German company a century ago, then it changed hands more than a soap bar in a public restroom and now I have no idea if it’s even a terrestrial company anymore

      Check the comment from superkret, basically overengineered, redundant and not very intuitive.

      I work in german SW development, so I understand. I would put it like this, german backends are among the best you can find but german frontends are usually complicated and not intuitive…

        The main problem is the way YaST2 is (not) integrated with the modern KDE and Gnome settings. Gnome 40 then screwed things up even more for them as every item is now part of the overview, there ain’t the classical menu anymore.

        If you know where to find things it’s great, but right now it indeed feels quite messy with lots of settings hard to find and split in lots of submenus.

      I thought the joke was that each distro has a descriptor that ends with -y with openSUSE’s descriptor being unexpected but still matching the pattern.
