Following the September release of the KDE LInux reference distribution for the KDE desktop in alpha form, KDE Linux developers have been working toward the beta release with more improvements to this open-source desktop distro.

KDE Linux as a reminder is KDE's reference platform while leveraging an immutable base OS and Arch Linux packages for the core platform. KDE Linux will ship with all the latest and greatest KDE software releases.

Sire, the entire point of KDE Linux is that it's meant to be a reference platform for developers that are creating apps that will be used in KDE Plasma. It's like if a prototype Xbox was given out to developers, and somebody complained that it's stupid because you're stuck with Xbox. If you don't like KDE, just use a distro that doesn't ship with it. This doesn't make any sense at all sire
