openSUSE is an open, free and secure operating system for PC, laptops, servers and ARM devices. Managing your emails, browsing the web, watching online streams, playing games, serving websites or doing office work never felt this empowering. And best part? It's not only backed by one of the leaders in open source industry, but also driven by lively community.

I'm finding a lot of threads with no replies and I'm wondering if openSUSE community congregates elsewhere or is it just a quiet community in general.

I use openSUSE everywhere, but I don't recommend it for new users because of the support issues. I end up using the Arch wiki a fair amount, and the vast majority of it applies regardless of distro.

The Matrix channel seems to be fairly responsive, at least compared to the forums. But both areas are a bit sparse. I wonder if it's better in German.

That makes sense. I have a good bit of experience as a casual user since the early 2000s, but I don’t have the same drive I used to for problem solving :~)

I might sign up for Matrix. Thanks for the info and great user name.
