No dont rename openSUSE, lets not throw away the 20+ year old brand name, and new governance? Is SUSE dropping openSUSE? What are they doing?? Has maintaining a distro become too much of a hassle to them?

SUSE has requested that openSUSE rebrands. There's not much the openSUSE project can do but comply.

Stop what? I'm just sharing news from openSUSE, I have no involvement.

@banazir sorry 🙇 My complaint was about SUSE stopping this attempt to disassociate itself from the community. I explained myself poorly.

They might be complaining about constant updates to the thread, since they're on Mastodon. It updates a little differently on that side and it might look like it's all coming from you or something.
