But KDE never will be exculsively available as snaps. Again, you can just install Flatpak and get them from there. Or get Debian and stick to .deb, it's largely the same base as Ubuntu anyway.

@PureTryOut @cyborganism just found out, that it was a good decision to move to debian.
Already hated it that I regularily lost my firefox profile because of this snap stuff...

Absolutely. I can get around some Snaps right now with Kubuntu 24.04 but I don't know how long I'll be able to with the next versions.

I regret not installing Debian, which was my 2nd choice. I've just been a loyal *Ubuntu user for 20 years so I thought I'd give it one last chance and because I've gotten pretty comfortable with it.

Next time I'll install Debian testing as a rolling distro. I think it's stable enough and even more stable than most Arch flavors or even OpenSuse Tumbleweed. With a solid snapshot strategy it should be safe enough.

@cyborganism Same. Also sticked long to Kubuntu.
However, they lost me.

Tried Debian testing. But wasnt really stable. Lost some packages during update. So switched to stable and I'm fine with it.

There's not that much software I need in latest version.
