Switching from Linux Mint to OpenSuSE Tumbleweed very soon. Any advice?
Linux Mint was the distro I chose little less than a year ago when I switched to Linux. Used it with Cinammon at first and then switched to XFCE. It's been a cool journey and I have def learned a lot.
But over time Mint has left more to be desired, most specifically, more up to date packages. Hence why I'm leaving the Debian / Ubuntu based distros to try OpenSuSE TW with Gnome.
Any advice would be appreciated

Don't be afraid to customize your install with YaST. You can add/remove packages before you do the installation.
You'll need packman if you need restricted codecs for video.
Update with
zypper dupas a general rule.If you do enable the packman repo, expect intermittent dependency conflicts when running
zypper dup. When it happens, wait a day or so for repos to update.Edit: spelling
Yep I did learn to do the same thing. Too bad they don't explain that when installing Thumbleweed.
