From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

More choice is good.
Suse are a decent company (despite some history under different owners) with some excellent engineers who already support foss projects like Uyuni. I don't know much about their new CEO but this might be a pivotal point in their history.
Redhat are proving themselves unpredictable, and that's about the worst thing any company wants to work with. No good having a stable product if the organisation itself is erratic and makes bad decisions.
I wonder if it will stay 100% the same as before. Should we call this the Clone Wars?
And another one...

That said gives such a confidence on their promises that they have to add this statement at the end
"Forward-Looking Statements

Lol Ok suse we trust you bro
Hmm i hope, especially with them mentioning cov19, that this is only the standard boilerplate legal defense stuff. It would make sense to not have the whole company going down if this side project fails
They do have exactly the same on their other news posts.
curious as to what they’d call it.
SUSE-Powered Enterprise Linux. Tagline: It spells SPEL.
