For well over a decade, maybe 15yrs I’ve been using Ubuntu and now Pop-OS I am really interested in starting to getting involved in KDE development somehow as retired software engineer. Also keen to switch to Arch…

What do you use for distro with your KDE work ?

    Neon seems ideally positioned for KDE-specific development. Latest KDE frameworks but not necessarily the latest Ubuntu base.

    While KDE neon is great for casual users, contributors will find KDE neon excels. Whether you are a coder, tester, artist, or do bug triage: KDE neon is the easiest way to work on the latest KDE software.

    Fedora may also be worth consideration, though its association with Ret Hat could end up being a limitation.

    All KDE applications are well integrated, with a similar look and feel and an easy to use interface, accompanied by an outstanding graphical appearance.
