I’m currently looking for a new OS, coming from KDE neon and I like it, but the fact I have to FUCKING restart because someone decided to push an OS update that broke my previous install, now the OS freezes my whole PC (never did before!) and I have to restart.

I’m looking for good apps support so Debian? Idk Using it for daily usage (Android/games development) and gaming.

I’m also looking for:

  • Wobbly windows (yes useless but cool lol)
  • Good customization
  • KDE connect support (a must)
  • Krunner or equivalent (MacOS like search)
  • Idk?

Thank you!

    Try Aurora DX (it means the developer edition). It’s KDE but with a Fedora base and immutability. It means that even if an update breaks something (unlikely but still) you will always have a working system available to fall back to. It does mean that development is meant to be done via containers, but I find this solution to be way cleaner and easier to work with than traditional package conflicts madness. Give it a go.

      It also means updates are just full system images, so no way for a package manager or differential update to mess anything up. It also means no way of downloading tiny differential updates (if I understand everything correctly).

      If you don’t need DX or would like to switch off of KDE, there are other fedora atomic desktop based distributions available.

      Oh right, a distribution is just an image, so switching distributions is as simple as switching the base OS image and rebooting.
