Correct me if I’m wrong, I’m still on the learning path of Linux. But there doesn’t seem to many forks of OpenSuse? There are a bunch of forks of Arch, Fedora and Debian, but why not OpenSuse? Is it a license problem or something else?

    I guess it’s more niche.

    Sure SUSE may not “need” a fork, but most forks of Debian and Ubuntu aren’t changing much beyond a few superficial settings - If you need your “own” distro you’re more likely to pick the bigger distros to fork and slap your own badge on á la TuxedoOS, PopOS, GnomeOS, KDE-Neon, etc.
