I understand the PPC builds of leap and tumbleweed are mostly intended for big iron/enterprise servers. However with the advent of raptorcs and their "blackbird" and "talos" motherboards and availability of POWER9 cpus to the general public there are home desktop users now (like me) Tumbleweed doesnt seem to include any web browsers at all, and is also missing some essential libraries I need for compiling or running software. Leap didn't have this issue, but I would have a lot of headaches with some of its deprecated packages when compiling software for this arch (ppc64le) so I went ahead and upgraded to tumbleweed. I much prefer SUSEs ease of use over fedora, so i'm curious why even a web browser(firefox) is not available from repos for tumbleweed ppc64le.
