Eeeh, yet another corporate-backed distro. If they ever become as popular as RHEL, they'll rugpull like RH. I'll pass.
- SuSE was extremely popular in 1998 already.
- Which one are you using, by the way?
  
  Currently running Ubuntu because I couldn't be bollocksed 😅

The article starts by mentioning the new LTS on SLES and then reads like a company ad mentioning only positive things about SUSE. No mentioning on the bad trends on sales that caused a delisting in 2023¹. No mention on the openSUSE name change request² .

- Thank you, this is interesting, though to me this is still quite insignifcant compared to Red Hat shenanigans.
  
  Oh, most definitely!
  I just felt that the perspective of the article was a bit too skewed in SUSE favour. If I had to look at Enterprise Linux with proper support then I would definitely prefer SLES to RHEL.
