Future of Neon?

[Buddlespit]

Curious why a leap to Arch or CachyOS seems like the best first option but not Kubuntu or even KDE Linux? I guess if you're just tired of the *buntu world and were waiting for an opportunity to move to an Arch based distro, that makes sense.

Everything is a rolling release, including KDE. Arch users are probably using the same versions of Plasma, KDE and QT.

Ubuntu et al is not a rolling release OS.

No, but KDEneon's desktop system is. So is Arch Linux. My point was that Arch Linux and KDENeon both have KDE/Plasma on a rolling release, so you'll most likely have the same versions of everything. If I remember correctly (and I very well might not), the Plasma maintainer (Rojas) in Arch also works for KDE.

Except for kernels, drivers, and very often Qt.
Neon's testing or unstable don't have that yet, even.

Qt versions can cause noticeable differences in terms of bugs fixed/introduced.

And even things like systemd and other system level differences can have a big effect on things.
