I currently use Fedora Kinoite and until Plasma 6 some major bugs will simply not be fixed. “Solved in Plasma 6” is a very common phrase now and that is okay.

But maybe once that is settled, I would like to have a system with tested packages, that doesnt always break and annoy me…

I love to see new features and especially KDE is simply best on modern Distros, currently. But with Nix and Flathub I think CentOS Stream should be a good mix?

I like the security settings it has, but I never used it. How good is EPEL, do external repos for things like Brave work? How old are packages, do you know when Plasma 6 will arrive there?

    Isn’t the package manager the same on CentOS/RHEL and Fedora? I mean, they are all rpm based distributions. OpenSUSE is also rpm based btw.

      That is true, RHEL and Fedora both uses dnf. This is probably why I’m having a hard time getting into RHEL.

      Meanwhile, OpenSUSE uses zypper which is different from dnf. In fact some .rpm packages are incompatible between the two.
