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.

OpenSuse + Hyprland = ? (lemm.ee)

Hello good nerds,

I'm still in the distrohopping era and have decided to go for Tumbleweed as my second distro after running Garuda as my first distro. I recently came across Hyprland, and it looks rather nice and fluent. Got a few questions:

Does anyone have any prior experience to installing Hyprland on OpenSuse?
Is it better to run KDE for this or GNOME?
Is Hyprland overrated? Are there any other alternatives?

Thanks for any insights!

Hyprland is great but if you do not have experience with it I would advise you to install KDE or Gnome while you build configs and workflows for it.

About how does it behave in OpenSuse I can't say nothing about it, but the guys at SUSE are all about stability, so as long as it is in the official repos you should be fine, otherwise third party repos might do fine as well.
