My main problem with opensuse is no body uses it.
Many projects either don't offer packages for it, or you need to use the in-distro package, which are certainly out of date. In addition to Zypper being dog slow.

It feels like it's a problem with every rpm-based distro, unfortunately
But yes, there are quite a few projects without direct support for OpenSUSE, for my needs it hasn't been a big problem so far.
Its the same thing with podman, you are going to be stuck with old versions, and I would say its much more important to have the latest version of podman than docker, as its very actively developed, especially when it comes to compatibility with docker compose.
Use an Arch Distrobox or Flatpaks if you can't find a specific package in OBS.
DNF is slow too, not because the CDN is slow, but because it sucks at choosing mirrors, limiting to specific countries fixes the issue, that doesnt seem possible with SUSE, or rather it doesn't seem to solve it.
