"OpenSUSE Leap 16.0 RC is a significant departure from previous versions, eliminating many established components and focusing on a more modern system."
"Leap 16 is exclusively Wayland, offering only GNOME, KDE Plasma, and an experimental version of Xfce, enhancing performance and security in desktop environments."
"The introduction of a web-based installer named Agama marks a modernization in the installation process, moving away from traditional methods used in previous versions."
"Leap 16 is designed for 64-bit architectures only, emphasizing efficiency by optimizing for modern CPUs while still maintaining some compatibility with older hardware."
OpenSUSE Leap 16.0 RC significantly departs from earlier versions by removing a large number of legacy components that are present in many other Linux distributions. It operates exclusively on Wayland and supports only three desktop environments: GNOME, KDE Plasma, and an experimental version of Xfce. Leap 16 is designed for 64-bit systems, requires newer CPU models, and cannot run 32-bit binaries. The new web-based installer, Agama, simplifies installation while the operating system prioritizes security and efficiency with the latest kernel and SELinux support.
