I switched to Tumbleweed from Mint a few months ago (having toyed with many distros over the years, and recently Nobara and Manjaro).
I like Tumbleweed - it's a good mix of up to date packages, system stability (so far, I accept rolling release is inherently always going to be risky) and a good ecosystem. I find it very user friendly thanks to Yast, but with lots of freedom for power use.
I also like that it's a an offshoot of a European Linux company rather than a big tech company like IBM. I'm not a fan of the direction redhat has taken and the impact some of its priorities seem to have on Fedora. I'm sure SuSE impacts a lot on OpenSuSE but of the big enterprise Linux ecosystems I currently prefer it over Ubuntu and Redhat.
