I don’t mean for this to become a KDE vs GNOME post. I’m looking at switching to Fedora (because Arch is a pain), and it seems that GNOME is more supported. I use KDE on Arch. What features would I be losing if I were to switch? (ex: toolbar management, KRunner, etc.)

    Yes for sure.

    • Fedora packagers do the heavy lifting of shipping the packages
    • ostree pulls in and versions the OCI images
    • rpm-ostree layers RPMs onto the base image but on their side, so they can install exactly what they need. Its all CI/CD Github actions
    • they include all the files needed for a perfect experience
    • they have yafti and ublue-update, which fill the gaps
    • on your machine, rpm-ostree just needs to update
