How's the desktop interface and is the software library extensive?

Just like any distro. Gnome, KDE or Xfce or anything you like. Plenty of software available, and they have a unique "webbased" system here: software.opensuse.org. You search for what you want, click on a link, and the GUI package manager opens and installs. If you are more of a CLI guy there's the command zypper that does the same thing.

They're about to make a change to a flatpak mutable iteration, do you favor that or prefer this immutable one?

 It is my great sorrow. I prefer a regular distro, without any flatpaks or immutability. I know enough of the system and how it behaves, to not shoot myself in the foot, and I also use it for day to day computing and not as some kind of container platform. So if opensuse moves to that, I'm forced to move on sadly. =(
 I'm currently looking at FreeBSD, debian, slackware and perhaps alpine linux to replace my dear opensuse if it is discontinued. =/
 Those are not beginner friendly but they all align more with how I like my linux to work.
