No decisions have been made, in any sort of official capacity, but Slowroll is one of the proposals as a replacement for Leap, when it becomes EOL, give it a try!

    I’m a Debian user but I’ve been eyeing Tumbleweed though I’m a bit hesitant around bleeding edge rolling release models (not very shocking considering that I use Debian). Slowroll looks like exactly the kind of thing I’m wanting out of a desktop OS, I’ve thrown it onto a VM for now to mess around with it and will be watching news around it.

    If Slowroll gets some traction/sticks around it might be what makes me switch, at least on first impressions it seems very promising.

      I certainly don’t care what distribution you use, but Tumbleweed, aside from the occasional glitch on single updates, is stable as hell, and has been for a long time. It’s hardly “bleeding edge” and on Par with Fedora, for instance, as far as stability is concerned. I’d say a bit more stable than the Arch derivatives, due to openQA.

      Its not perfect by any means, but no distribution is.

        I must’ve somehow convinced myself that it was bleeding edge somewhere along the line, I’ll have to check out Tumbleweed itself too in that case
