Hello all, I’ve been distro hopping a lot lately and have a long term goal of settling on one distro for the family laptops.

Currently it’s a smattering of linux distro’s and some M$ across all the systems in the house.

In short the fam has had a pretty negative reaction to Gnome for all the usual reasons, so there is a kubuntu instance, Nobara, but the KDE version, Manjaro etc… I kind of want to give Fedora a stint on my laptop and noticed the Fedora spins project and was wondering if anyone has played around with it at all?

I spun up the KDE version in a VM alongside the default Fedora and noticed it’s running a newer kernel than the default, which is interesting…

Is it an equal partner in update cycles?

    The best. KDE is an unstable mess though, at least currently.

    Try Fedora Kinoite from ublue.it to have the best out-of-the-box experience with little bloat and a very solid foundation.

    Rpm-ostree distros rock. And I think that stability is needed on a Distro with that many updates.

    Went through quite some KDE Distros.

    Also note that even on an immutable distro you can mess up a lot. That will not be reproducible on a second user profile, probably. Or you messed up writable system dirs like /etc where more configs are.
