In my case I was ecosystem'd into RPM and Flatpak, so openSUSE makes me happy

RPM just reminds me of my first experiences with Linux 20 years back. It wasn't a very pleasant experience from what I remember and then apt came along and seemed to solve so much. It was so good and simple apt update && apt upgrade. I've never been tempted to go back really as I haven't seen the need.

apt is to Debian and Ubuntu what dnf is to RHEL-based distros (Fedora, CentOS, RHEL, Alma/Rocky) or zypper is to SUSE-based distros. RPM's equivalent is dpkg
