The peculiar thing is that it even sounds stupid in its original German. It sounds similar to the kindergarten-level insult "Heulsuse" which roughly means "whiny sissy".
I want to like Tumbleweed, but every time I check for updates there's like a gigabyte of them. I am probably going to switch to Leap at certain point. I don't understand what's the point of having latest stuff anyway. Unless you are gaming on your device I guess.
Having the latest software and not having to worry about reinstalling the OS every major release is the main point of Rolling Release.
If you want less updates and your are fine not having the most recent software you are good using a fixed point release OS like Fedora or similar. Although you are not forced to update openSUSE very often, you can do it once a month or if you know there was a recent CVE fix.
RedHat was a major military contractor with job postings like this current one [archive] long before they were bought by another older and larger military contractor.
