I suppose SUSE makes a lot of sense. Until some time ago SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and openSUSE were related, but not exactly the same. That changed with Leap 15.3, since which openSUSE is now based on the same packages as SLE.

I've been personally using Tumbleweed on my personal devices and it's been great. I've not had a single issue with stability and almost always gotten extremely recent versions of software.

I've also had great experiences with Tumbleweed for the most part, but be careful using ZFS, as it frequently breaks with updates. Probably not something most people use, but it does force me to run Leap on my home server.

My main issue with SUSE is 3rd party support. For example docker doesn't have an official repo for openSUSE/SUSE, so you are stuck with their outdated version or Podman, which is also outdated.
