Right, from the KDE neon FAQ: """ Is it a distro? Not quite, it's a package archive with the latest KDE software on top of a stable base. While we plan to have installable images, unlike full distros we're only interested in KDE software. """ and of course """ Is this "the KDE distro"? Nope. KDE believes it is important to work with many distributions, as each brings unique value and expertise for their respective users. This is one project out of hundreds from KDE. """ Shame on flamebaiting journalists who chose to ignore this. Worth pointing out that if you want an official KDE distro you'd be better looking at weekly Plasma ISOs (http://files.kde.org/snapshots/), Plasma Wayland ISOs (http://files.kde.org/snapshots/), Plasma mobile images (http://kubuntu.plasma-mobile.org/) and Plasma Active images (https://files.kde.org/plasma/active/). Weirdly nobody ever complained about these or wrote articles saying they were a terrible idea.
