Looking for a normie KDE distro that works out of the box and is stable without issues.

    Kubuntu is most normie. Its just Ubuntu but with KDE instead of Gnome. KDE Neon has the latest KDE but the update process is a mess so I can’t recommend it.

    Personally I use EndeavourOS with KDE and find it very easy. Updates are literally just typing yay. But I understand that Arch based distros aren’t for everyone.

      I’m using kubuntu right now. Test it out fedora for about 3 hours before I ran into a bug and went back to the KUbuntu hard drive. Normie means it just works, or at the very least googling the answer leads to good solutions. Only ubuntu has that

      I find that endeavor is pretty nice as someone who typically uses windows…I just can’t wrap my head around not having a GUI for software installs. Like, I want to install jellyfish, but when I search for it, there were like 30 different ones to choose. Installed a package that I don’t want, where do I go to find the exact name of the package and then uninstall?

      It was enough to send me to kubuntu, which is what’s on my laptop now. Basically only use the laptop for the web too, so likely no reason to change anything up.
