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.

This is why im on the hunt for a new distro. Looking at pop and fedora right now. Kinda prefer deb cause thats been my env for 15 yrs
Debian is right there then.
Can I get debian with latest kde? Like stable debian but rolling DE like kde neon?
Siduction is rolling Debian with more updated KDE stuff.
Debian 12 shipped with the latest kde plasma version, but the distro is designed to be stable, with a capital S. The packages will not update until the version does.
Flatpaks are a great way to get modern software on a stable OS like debian. If neon has a flatpak version, it would be a good answer.
stableis not the only debian release.I would recommend using Linux Mint. It is Ubuntu without Gnome Shell and snaps. They use Flatpak instead. I have been enjoying it ever since I jumped ship from Ubuntu about 2 years ago.
I'm thinking pop os or just boring plain debian. This snap shit is just getting too much to bother with.
Flatpaks fix a lot of debains boring.
Agreed. I game alot in linux and ive heard straight debian isnt so hot there
Been using popos on all my computers for the past year and have been happy with it.
I’ve heard the latest Debian absolutely slaps; haven’t tried it yet myself though
I’d suggest if you want stock and recent Gnome, stick with Fedora.
Pop is building their own DE that they will switch to sometime in 2023. Which also mean they will remain 22.04 till then.
I’m waiting for VanillaOS 2.0 release to see if it is any better.
