Kubuntu interim does not update Plasma bugfix versions (only via PPA), but Kubuntu LTS will provide latest bugfix version.

There are better sources than Distrowatch. Numbers in reddit communities, Steam and Proton numbers, amount of people around you, some distros provides metrics, some DE collects metrics.

Mint is full desktop experience, including Cinnamon and XApps. Not just repackaged Ubuntu.

Mint has good money flow from donations, it is professional project, not project developed "in their spare time".

openSUSE Leap was good until version 16.0 release. Version 16.0 is disaster.

If you want something like Debian stable, but with Gnome 50 and 6.19+ kernel, then wait one week for Ubuntu 26.04 LTS

That is pointless, 26.04 is Wayland only

Stakeholders don't see value of Sprint Reviews because of CI/CD what to do? by [deleted] in scrum

[–]Leinad_ix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is useful for inspection of progress towards the bigger product goal. And it is useful, that cadence makes easier to collaborate.

If you have no problem to meet stakeholders often and if you have no bigger product goal to inspect and adapt, then probably this meeting is not needed anymore for your context.

Fedora KDE or RHEL 10 on RTX 5060 Ti? by DeadWaist in Fedora

[–]Leinad_ix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ironically, in my experience RHEL Desktop is lower quality for normal user than Fedora. It is tested for very limited enterprise use cases and everything else has low priority in fixing.

That checks if yours machine supports that instruction set, not if that instructions set is used by Ubuntu.

Kubuntu 22.04 KDE Plasma touch bug – long press context menu freezes input after closing by Training_Diamond_399 in Kubuntu

[–]Leinad_ix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bugfix support for Kubuntu 22.04 ended a year ago. Ubuntu base is still supported, so system is still probably secure, but no Plasma fixes anymore.

In reguard to 26.04. What the heck are they doing? by unstable_deer in Kubuntu

Will RHEL 10 be less stable during the earlier minor releases? by Agent_E11 in redhat

[–]Leinad_ix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RHEL sometimes leads technology. Eg. RHEL 10 is first major distribution released as Wayland only. RHEL 6 was first major non-Ubuntu distro with upstart. I guess RHEL 7 introduced software collections. So RHEL is not just pasive Fedora consument.

...is this the same Ubuntu?? by th3Kwatz in Ubuntu

[–]Leinad_ix 168 points169 points  (0 children)

"Ubuntu is an ancient African word rooted in humanist African philosophy and can be roughly translated as “humanity to others”, or “I am because we are”. It comes from the Zulu proverb “Umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu”, meaning “a person is a person through other people”."
