    Overall, I see this as a good move. YaST was dated and sluggish. I hated having to use it. Yes, it will make SuSE feel different now, but sometimes change is good.

      Please correct me if I’m wrong, but my understanding is that we didn’t get any alternative in return. Right?

        Yeah, they’ve been apparently working on its replacement for quite some time, so the “news” of its retirement actually comes because of the discovery of its replacement and the chatter around it. The linked article isn’t an official announcement of YaST’s death, it’s just speculation. But it’s very credible speculation.

          Are you referring to the combination of Agama, Ansible and Cockpit?
