Hello fellow lemmings! Fedora KDE user here, and quite happy about it, it didn’t break a single time and packages are up to date. The only thing that bother me is DNF’s speed… a single search may take up to 5 seconds, and if I’m dependency-hunting I may need several searches, summing up the delays. I’m asking if switching to openSUSE Tumbleweed could be a good idea or not. The idea of the rolling release is really intriguing, whole system upgrades always makes me nervous, and zypper, being written in C++, should be faster than DNF.
I would stick to Wayland KDE, as my current fedora setup.
Other than this, I don’t see any other obvious pros or cons, so I’m asking you: why should I switch and why shouldn’t I? any tips from someone who used both?
thanks in advance!

If you are on Fedora 38, have you tried dnf5 yet. You can install it with sudo dnf install dn5 dnf5-plugins. I used it only briefly before moving away from Fedora for other reasons, but it was much better than standard dnf. However, I am not sure it speeds up searches as well, though downloads were certainly much faster for me.
