I have a pretty comfortable Kubuntu 23.04 installation. I have run Debian in the past, What will I gain or lose if I clean install from Kubuntu to Debian (besides snaps, which is also a major inducement)

    I’m also running Kubuntu, but I’ll switch to EndeavourOS. I wouldn’t pick Debian because I like having the latest versions of things as they’re released, some things even in beta, but other than that I think it’s a solid choice if it fits your needs.

      There is an axis I had not considered - the relative “uptodateness” of the packages. Debian is + for stability but - for “newfeatureness”

        Fedora is your friend. Best of both worlds: not quite as bleeding edge as Arch, but rock sturdy and so far ahead of Debian in terms of up-to-date packages. I’ve been using it for years and never had issues.
