I would also have to get used to not having Yast.
Freshly released KDE 3.0 and YaST (*Y*et *A*nother *S*etup *T*ool) were what hooked me on SUSE 8.x originally. YaST is both setup tool, and installer, whose UI is logically identical whether using text mode or GUI mode.
With decades of experience behind me I don't use YaST much as setup tool much any more, but I find it far and away the best Gnu/Linux distro installer bar none, with equivalent appreciation applicable to zypper as cmdline package manager.
Were openSUSE 16 to turn out to be unacceptable regression, I would have little problem switching to Mageia, assuming it still exists. If not, most likely any switch of primary OS would be to Debian Stable, assuming TDE still exists for it. ;)
I have been considereing Mageia, too. Although I read that it has a smaller user base than openSUSE or others. I wonder also whether one should give Tumbleweed a try if Leap 16.x is not really viable.
