OpenSUSE is the best

Hear me out, the mascot is a freaking chameleon, that's cool as shit man.

Also it's a German engineered distro, German engineering wins again!

Zypper is just a funnier name for a package manager and it has Tumbleweed which is arch but actually doesn't break for once!

Your rebuttal?

You find Zypper a better name than Pacman?

I would say zypper up is the better command, just because it's kinda funny. pacman is better overall, but it gets less fun when you start adding arguments like -Syu, if only because it's a "language" you have to learn and isn't self-documenting in any way.

Haha, zypper up is a nice one, didn't know that.

Pacman gets huge bonus points though for having a config option to turn to progress bar shown during package installation into a 'pacman' (letter c) chomping from left to right :)

(done by adding ILoveCandy under the Misc options in /etc/pacman.conf)
