I've been running the development version of Kubuntu since version 11.04 and have rarely had cause to abandon it and revert to the current release. Kubuntu 13.04 has been very stable for me with only two major problems.Originally posted by MoonRise View PostTitle says it. Downloading the Daily Build now. Will be upgrading to it this weekend.

As outlined in another thread, both Firefox and Thunderbird would freeze for no apparent reason. The freezes became less frequent after a couple of weeks and it now seems that they have stopped. I have no idea what caused the freezes which others were also experiencing. The only other problem that I am still finding is that the GTK version of Emacs doesn't always start if I'm using the oxygen theme. I fear this won't be resolved before 13.04 is released but if you're not an Emacs user then this won't affect you of course.
The KDE version is still at 4.10.1 but 4.10.2 is expected very soon. I say go for it and enjoy Kubuntu 13.04 a couple of weeks before it's formally released.
Although as a disclaimer I should say that you might experience problems that I don't due to a difference in the hardware being used and the installed applications. -

The only issue I have come across recently is that google chrome does not install because of a version bump in an Ubuntu library - not the fault of anyone, really. Google will just have to edit the dependency info on their end.
The *buntu daily builds have by design and intent been installable and usable for the past couple of versions. We are hardly living on a razor's edge anymore, for the most part
