openSUSE Leap 16 Enters Beta
I didn't notice this until the other post about them potentially deprecating YaST (at least putting in on maintenance mode). I figured we could use a thread to discuss other changes coming in Leap 16.

That's unfortunate. I guess it's the latest LTS, but later kernels have some decent fixes to a variety of things, such as better RK3588 support (I've been eying these to replace my NAS/media server). 6.14 has a bunch of neat improvements as well, like improvements to make running Windows games faster. I guess that's the rub with any fixed release.
That said, I'm planning to move away from Leap anyway, so this won't really impact me. The last systems I have on Leap are my NAS and VPS, both of which I'd like to switch to MicroOS, hopefully by the time Leap 16 is released.
I'm interested to try these out. Cockpit is in 15.6, so maybe I'll play with it there.
