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 Tumbleweed is pretty comfy. Btrfs snapshots enabled by default so it's really hard to break it. I've been using it for about 8 months now and haven't had any big issues.
Tumbleweed? No way dude. That's a rolling release.
And for being one it's shockingly stable. It's in a bit of flux right now as things are between X11/Wayland, but it's definitely not as iffy as bleeding-edge Arch or anything. :)
Oh yeah I'm on X11 for now, waiting on nvidia to be ready before trying wayland again. AMD users should be fine to use wayland though.
