Yeah, I'm looking at Fedora too. I just want something that is stable,
that works after install, and will continue to work after upgrades for
foreseeable future. You can say that for Slackware. But, I'm getting
old for "manual transmission"...

I think Fedora is on its way to becoming the replacement for Ubuntu as

I'm happy with Manjaro but if I were choosing a new distro to move to,
it would be Fedora.

Thanks. Ugh.
Your timing is perfect, because I'm just about to do a fresh install
and this would be the time to decide on something else.
I'm looking for an alternative that will offer support for a KDE
version as well as Steam and my fairly-new AMD graphics card (RX 6500
XT). I'd also prefer to live snap-free.
Mint and Pop don't support KDE, SuSE has problems with Steam and I'm
exhausted enough that I don't want one more learning curve wrt the
Arch way of doing things. Right now my best choices appear to be MX,
KDE Neon (if I install the 32-bit libraries for Steam) and (if I want
to go back to an RPM-based system for the first time since Mandriva
ceased,) Fedora KDE.
Any suggestions, either from these choices or something else? Thanks
again.

[Last paragraph]
I think the launch of Ubuntu 22.04 is a clear sign Canonical is much
more interested in publishing releases on a set schedule than
producing
something worthwhile. This version was not ready for release and
it's is
probably going to be a costly endeavour to maintain this
collection of
mixed versioned software and mixed display server and mixed
designs for
a full five years. It's a platform I would recommend avoiding.
