There's nothing to catch up on. It's a kernel. It's systemd. And then pick a desktop manager. Every distro installs in 5 minutes. Because on Linux you literally just copy/paste. It's just a sloppy fork of Arch.

You're missing the point. The sloppy fork gets all I need installed in under 5 minutes so I don't even need to copy/paste. And there's a lot to catch up on, I had no idea hyprland existed, for example, and I happen to like it. To each his own, I guess. I find it useful and so do others.

If you didn't know it existed before and you didn't try anything new and you didn't catch up on anything then how can you judge if it's actually good? What if KDE is actually better for your use case?

Slight misunderstanding? I am a long time user of KDE, Xfce and Gnome. Even Unity, which kinda sucked. I find the components omarchy glued together a better fit for my needs now.
