No, it's laying them off because it's November and it will juice their financials. AI is a convenient scapegoat

sad, never a big fan of yast but appreciate a european owned distro

I've never used SUSE, but it's one of the oldest Linux distributions still going. Sad to see this.

Cannot wait for the news that SUSE becomes the latest target of exploits and such due to vibed cuck code... all because they fired people who knew how to do their job correctly for "AI and automation".
We need no nonsense leaders who will do everything in their power to kill generative AI like centuries ago. Another project is slowly killing itself by a thousands cuts by a radioactive knife.
No, SUSE lays off workers because it has been purchased by private equity ghouls and they have been looking to flip it quickly this past year.
Never was my distro of choice and guess that won’t be changing.
I have a paid for SUSE subscription and have been to susecon a couple times, I won't use it anymore after this.
RIP
As an OpenSuse user, should I look for alternatives? I do like OpenSuse as it is now...

Bit offtopic: I don't know where you got the thumbnail, but that beer was probably really good. https://klosterbrauerei-weissenohe.de/ produce a lot of really good stuff for Lidl here in Europe at least, and especially their Hampstead gin.
And on topic, this isn't the best look for SUSE. I looked up how many work at SUSE and it's around 1900, so 10% people fired means ~190 people, almost 200. Rough.

SUSE has been on my todo list to try for Linux distributions but now, SUSE can go suck a dick🖕💩

Never was intrigued by this os. Always wondered if I was being somehow biased. Now I know it was just good instinct.
Disappointed in Suse. Guess all they do is try to stuff their pockets.

Now that I had found some stability and peace of mind using Tumbleweed. Oh well, I guess it's time to start distro hopping again, not in the mood thoough.
