I recently tried Leap for a desktop machine, but e.g. Firefox would not play most web video sites, e.g. youtube or similar, sites telling me my setup was not supported, lacked codecs and stuff. I wonder if OpenSuSE has some copyright or licensing problems of to offer the codecs? Or is there a simple way to add all the missing stuff that maybe OpenSuSE cannot provide due ot legal reasons via other means? Packman?
What other stuff am I missing with OpenSuSE as to-be desktop user? Maybe I should stick with Windows or Mac? Thank you in advance for giving a basic run-down for a Linux desktop noob.
