Hello, i am currently looking for a Linux distribution with these criteria:
-it should be more or less stable, comparable to Ubuntu with or without LTS // -it should not be related to IBM to any way (so no fedora/redhat) // -it should not feature snaps (no Ubuntu or KDE neon) // -KDE plasma should be installable manually (best case even installed by default) // -no DIY Distros //
I’ve been thinking about using an immutable distro, but if anyone can recommend something to me, I’d be very grateful //
Edit: I’m sorry for the bad formatting, for some reason it doesn’t register spaces
There are only 3 options I can immediately think of, for you:
Debian
OpenSUSE (Leap)
Slackware
They are ordered from most to least likely to recommend for your criteria i.e I recommend Debian, alternatively Leap, and if you don’t like either you can try Slackware, but Slackware is closer to a DIY distro.
Opensuse Slowroll is a way better approach than Leap. Same for Debian, I would use Kubuntu and desnap it or something, as updates every 2 years is simply outdated quickly.
KDE doesnt work well with “stable” Distros.
