Believe it or not, an unexpected conflict has arisen in the openSUSE community with its long-time supporter and namesake, the SUSE company.
At the heart of this tension lies a quiet request that has stirred not-so-quiet ripples across the open source landscape: SUSE has formally asked openSUSE to discontinue using its brand name.
Richard Brown, a key figure within the openSUSE project, shared insights into the discussions that have unfolded behind closed doors.
Despite SUSE’s request’s calm and respectful tone, the implications of not meeting it could be far-reaching, threatening the symbiotic relationship that has benefited both entities over the years.

And where do you think the people deciding what to buy get their information? Mind share is important.
That's actually surprising to me, but I'd argue that Suse offers more products, it seems like Rancher, Longhorn, etc. have no canonical equivalent.

OMG. This is so hilariously true.
Most certainly not in Linux distro community spaces, because those are completely irrelevant for them and their needs.
Almost everybody that chooses SUSE ( SLE ) does so because of SAP.
