The 2025 Linux Tier List
(peertube.wtf)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The installation quirks of atomic will drive you batty. Just Fedora KDE sounds like what you're wanting, I finally got sick of fixing Arch after a decade of it and have not regretted changing a year or so ago.
It's very up to date but has never even had a hiccup on updates, and it doesn't have a bunch of Canonical bullshit attached. It's just a pretty current vanilla Linux distro with no fucking around. I think I've hit that bellcurve downslope of a quarter century of Linux use that starts and ends in the same spot, Redhat.
And it installs by default on btrfs, so install Timeshift or BTRFS Assistant with Snapper, and sleep well at night.
Thanks
