I recommend Fedora to everyone wanting a desktop alternative to Ubuntu. It's a well-balanced distribution that is opinionated enough to work fine as-is but doesn't try to force things on you the way Ubuntu does with snaps.
- pbhjpbhj 5y agoWhat DEs are common/supported on Fedora, I use KDE (Kubuntu), I'm not keen on snaps and so it seems expedient to switch distros when I next install (as it seems Ubuntu are all in for snaps).
- chousuke 5y agoGnome is the default and there's a KDE "spin", but I use Sway myself so I can't really comment on how well KDE works.
- tapoxi 5y agoYou want Kinoite: https://kinoite.fedoraproject.org/ https://kinoite.fedoraproject.org/ it's Fedora's equivalent of Kubuntu. I'm a GNOME user but I've heard good things.
- spinachsalad 5y agoWell, this is a KDE variant of Fedora Silverblue, so there are some quirks. If you want normal Fedora but with KDE, there is a KDE spin available: https://spins.fedoraproject.org/kde/ https://spins.fedoraproject.org/kde/
- tapoxi 5y agoWhoops! Nice catch, I love Silverblue but forgot this was the Silverblue KDE spin.
- stjohnswarts 5y agoI can't do that because I don't want to update every 6 months. If I wanted to do that I'd just move to arch/endeavour.
- dralley 5y agoYou don't _have_ to update every 6 months. Each release is supported for around 13 months so you can hop every 2 releases.
