I'm looking forward to seeing how this OpenSUSE governance RFC develops. It's a very promising start! I especially appreciate the care that went into crafting the wording of the guiding principles.

It's time to talk #migration. At #FOSDEM, "The Great Migration" explores why now is the moment to push for #Linux desktops across governments and institutions. Politics, cost, sovereignty; it's all on the table. #Endof10 #openSUSE #opensource https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/PHKFZF-great-migration/

Day two of the server migration to #openSUSE Leap 16 is ongoing.
Today's goal: Migrate the home servers. Since this is a new Leap strain, I do a complete re-installation.

Almost an hour spent trying to figure out why Flatpak-installed apps looked different on openSUSE Tumbleweed and Void Linux, configured the same way.
I just could not make sense of it.
Then I realized one was running Xorg and the other Wayland.
Needless to say, that was the problem…
OK #fedora users: how are you doing Signal on desktop?
@vkc been using the #OpenSuse build service on Fedora 42: https://software.opensuse.org/download.html?project=network:im:signal&package=signal-desktop
Sadly the package is/was broken for Fedora 43 due to missing dependencies and I just gave up and moved on to the official Flatpak.
Fells kind of bad though due to the security issues and it being not official.
@peteorrall in general, quite good. No major problems since May (when I re-started to use it).
@stefano Glad to hear you had good luck with it. #openSUSE has some interesting ideas and projects and I want to like it but based on my experiences with it over the past 20 years, it is not the distro for me.
However, my issues with it are, objectively speaking, firmly rooted in its architectural design and decisions.
