Heya, I’m currently on Opensuse Slowroll with KDE-Wayland and came from Leap for more recent updates. Even if Slowroll promises monthly big updates, the rolling snapshots still seem to replace most of the system weekly with ~4GB downloads. I don’t like that. I looked at Fedora, but found that I would like .deb-compatibility, if I’m already switching. Debian stable is as stale as Leap from what I can see. Debian testing is in flux, and people don’t agree on stability. Kubuntu has built-in reliance on snaps, which makes me hesitant to switch. I’m currently trying Mint-Xfce with post-install KDE, it doesn’t seem to have wayland support.

Are there any good daily-drivers with sane updates and good support, I should try? I’m not willing to do proper Arch yet, never mind that that would be bleeding-edge-rolling. _

Maybe TUXEDO OS is something you want to consider. From the description of Distrowatch: “The distribution uses KDE Plasma as the preferred desktop (…) removal of Ubuntu’s snap daemon and snap packages…” The first review mentions that “You can even switch between X11 and Wayland at the log-in screen” and Distrowatch also lists all the packages so you can compare if they are newer than Debian’s.

I haven’t tried it myself yet, but I’ve read some good reviews - might be worth a try. Let us know, what you settled with, please!
