Fedora KDE Plasma
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- KDE Plasma gives you a completely different workflow while keeping you in the Fedora ecosystem. You get significantly more customization, but you don't have to trade away Fedora's stability and ecosystem just to make your desktop enjoyable.
- I'm using fedora kde plasma but curious to see what else y'all use and why, is there a performance upgrade, or just easier to use or what.
- It is laptop friendly, I am using it on 7-8 year old hardware and still getting 5 hours of battery life in mixed use (78% capacity). ... It is stable and using it around for 3 years and it hasn't broke once yet.
- Fedora KDE Plasma. Up to date, well supported, no rolling release problems, no immutable distro headaches, large enough community.
- My recommendation is Fedora KDE Plasma edition. Easy, Powerful, and familiar.
Cons
- Fedora KDE Plasma - this one is barebones, it's a really good base, but you have to build it up to game or do anything beyond browse and office work.
