Impressions after a week using KDE Neon: Amazing

It’s been fairly stable as I would expect from an LTS. There’s LOT of hiccups with whatever is happening in the tray area (power and battery sometimes doesn’t work).

Language is pretty screwed up. I speak both English/Spanish in a Spanish location. Installer chooses half spanish and english in the /etc/locale, and has issues changing it in the frontend.

Overall nothing I can’t fix as I put stability overall

    @Sina That’s a fair observation. It is highly probable that the team has no experience with doing a distribution. Sometimes I just ponder if it’s just the lack of people in the team doing QA or just not enough experience to fix issues.

      I don’t know if it’s a problem with experience.

      I think it’s mainly these two things:

      -Intermingling very old Ubuntu packages with bleeding edge KDE.

      -The goal is to demo & test new KDE features and other considerations are secondary.
