openSUSE Tumbleweed: The openSUSE distribution you'll probably like, although it differs from other Ubuntu-like distributions Linux based on Debian.
Although these distributions are preferred by millions of users, I will focus on something that makes openSUSE stand out:
Its code base is Enterprise (from SUSE Linux Enterprise to be exact). So there is a solid foundation that the openSUSE project community is developing. The distribution has two different versions, the fixed LTS version of openSUSE, and the rolling Tumbleweed version.
Tumbleweed contains the latest packages of any software packaged by the openSUSE project. The last kernel, the latest libraries, the latest work environments. Everything at Tumbleweed can and is constantly changing.
I personally consider openSUSE a very reliable and "Easy" distribution as long as you take the time to learn the amazing yast. Of course I suggest you try it and you will see that it has nothing to do with the Ubuntu philosophy.

I select a partition for the root (/) for configuration and I also give the partition for the boot without selecting the "format" since it contains bootloaders from other operating systems.
We are ready with them disks. Let's set the time zone
and the extra user outside the root
We are ready. The following screen will show us all the settings:
One click starts the installation:
When finished, it will ask you to restart. If you are using other operating systems and have not disturbed the main boot, your computer will not display openSUSE, as the primary operating system should first see it.
So with a boot on my main boot system I give the following command:
That's it! If you are interested download the ISO
