After years of support and collaboration, SUSE asked OpenSUSE to drop “SUSE” - their [SUSE] branding - from their [OpneSUSE] name.
I haven't seen information on that. Only speculations in comments here on Lemmy. I didn't and don't follow SUSE or this news closely though.
A commenter mentioned how SUSE has core business in hosting and business environment, while OpenSUSE userbase is more desktop and [non-paying?] end-user.
There wasn't (to me anyway) strong arguments for why they do. Maybe they just want to get rid of the investment, and don't see enough gain in the good publicity and it as an entry point to them anymore.
