I’ve been using linux for some time now, i would still say i’m quite a noob but i’ve tried different desktop environments, for my experience i found GNOME to always be suited for me, anyway i heard many good opinions on KDE and i would love to try that too, i’ve tried cinnamon before and couldn’t really see myself using it, i’ve seen Kubuntu and looks quite lovely, what’s in your opinion the distro that best implements KDE on Debian or preferably Ubuntu?

Well, why not Debian itself. However if you want something Debian based with ease of use then check Spiral linux

Opensuse tumbleweed is woth checking as well. It has a good KDE implementation and you may like Yast and Zypper.

I installed debian with KDE, so far looks great, not too many problems in setting up my environment, KDE is great and i love the stability that debian seem to be based on, i don’t really care if my software gets a couple of year old, as long as it keeps working without problems!

Flatpak can get you the latest version, not everything can installed using flatpak though.

Just chiming in to reaffirm what everyone else has said: KDE Neon is specifically built be the best KDE distro. The development branch is what KDE devs use to build & test all their software, so no distro is designed to work better with KDE software than KDE Neon.

MX Linux which is number 1 on Distrowatch for a reason. Much easier than installing Debian itself which needs some tweaking, and really just Debian with some extra tools, latest Firefox… The Debian 12 based version is ready and I don’t have any issues. I also run Debian set to Trixie/Sid, which is fun if you want Debian to be like a rolling release distro, but you need to enable some bug reports and know how to manage updates to not have things break on you.

Kubuntu et KDE Neon. Debian is Debian and you can install kde. Check the plasma version maybe Debian don’t use the lastest update.

If you want to try the latest kde update : kde neon.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
