It seems like its a perfect distro. Rolling release so you get recent packages and dont have huge upgrades every few months, but not so bleeding edge that it breaks often. YaST is pretty cool but you are not forced to use it. Basic installation gives you enough essential stuff, but its not too bloated. The only thing its missing is AUR, but i still didnt find a program that i need and cant find in official repos or trough flatpak.

Honestly, now that i use it, it seems like insanity to install anything else. (for everyday desktop use)

    I tried it recently for a server, trying to get Uyuni up as a system to manage patching etc for other systems.

    Install was pretty straightforward and in itself it seems stable. The installer was perhaps a bit more friendly than i.e. Debian for stuff like drive positioning with encrypted volumes etc.

    Unfortunately it didn’t really offer anything new that other distros didn’t, and Uyuni itself turned out to be less than fun to configure especially for custom repos for Bookworm systems etc
