    KDE Linux experiences

    I daily drove KDE Linux for almost a year and I liked it, but I'm also switching back to Fedora KDE. Here's my ramblings about it all.

    [18:56] schestowitz[TR2]

    KDE Linux is the hot new Linux distro from KDE themselves. At the moment it uses Arch Linux as it's base but with heavy modifications and changes. You can read more about it on the site, but to sum up: It's an atomic/"immutable" distro that does not have any kind of package management outside of installing flatpaks. (Do note that they're epxerimenting on using buildstream instead [18:56] schestowitz[TR2] of Arch Linux.)

    As one of the KDE devs I've been daily driving it on my desktop, which I use for both work and leisure (gaming).

    The following text can be quite technical as I am viewing this through my developer workflow lense, though I will also touch on regular user things.
