KDE Linux is an “immutable base OS” Linux distro created using Arch Linux packages, but it should not be considered an “Arch-based distro”; Arch is simply a means to an end, and KDE Linux doesn’t even ship with the pacman package manager.
KDE Linux leans on Systemd for a great deal of functionality. Updates are atomic and image-based, with the last 5 OS images cached on disk. Only the Wayland session is supported. Apps primarily come from Flatpak.
I probably won’t use it for the simple fact that it will likely use the rolling release style of updates. I am more of a stable release fella myself, so I think I’ll stick to LMDE.
Kde is building their own non ubuntu Linux distro, pretty cool imo
Oooh, what is it called? Does it have a name yet?
Note that KDE Linux is completely different from Neon:
/usris a read-only, atomically updatederofsvolume backed by a single file, allowing rollback to any of the last 5 OS imagesI love the direction they’re going with it, but I personally won’t be running it because I like to tinker.

They disagree with calling it arch based:
They can disagree, but if I take your recipe and then change it, no matter how much, my starting point is still based on your recipe….
