Comment on Manjaro Linux Team Goes on Strike, Threatens to Fork the Project

I hope openSUSE will eventually get around and enjoy some much deserved momentum. I feel it isn’t quite reaching its full potential as a project, because it (somehow) fails to attract a bigger audience. Don’t get me wrong, it’s definitely doing well and it holds its own admirably. But, (going off of ProtonDB’s data) where Fedora (together with its derivatives) managed to effectively increase its market share by at least 400%, openSUSE^[It’s the green colored bar found right under Manjaro] -despite Tumbleweed making more sense for gaming- was only able to keep what it had…

I don’t think openSUSE markets itself properly. I can’t believe EU_OS picked Fedora instead. That makes 0 sense.

I (mostly) agree. I believe that
bootcmight have played a role in EU_OS’ decision to pick Fedora over openSUSE. Back then, it wasn’t possible to use it outside of Fedora’s ecosystem. But Bootcrew has since released bootc images for other distros; including openSUSE. So hopefully they will reconsider it.
