Exactly why I won’t be on a distro if it doesn’t support kde.
I’ve been all over I’m on arch currently for the first time. It was nice using my PC and having to install the thing I wanted.
It was a good change.
I came from kde neon because I enjoy apt… but yay and pacman work currently so I’ll stick with it for a bit.
I can’t be bothered to learn how to build and maintain a kernel though, hence why I stay away from Arch. My “dummy-friendly” distro of choice for KDE Plasma is OpenSuse Tumbleweed. It has been rock solid for a year now except for that one time a few weeks ago when NVidia dropped the ball and fucked up their driver update. It was fixed a few days later. My only other complaint is that I wish they didn’t wait for NVidia to put the new 560 drivers in the production branch to trickle it down to us because for some reason that’s what gets supported in tumbleweed. EVERYONE who needs those drivers are impatiently waiting for just that because pre-555 drivers don’t play well with Wayland.
Fedora Plasma Spin is probably another solid choice but for some reason on my computer it just instantly bricked itself upon first update.
