I’m not a beginner anymore, but I’m much less interested in technical tinkering for its own sake than I used to be. These days I just want my computer to work properly without too much intervention from me.

I’ve been using Kubuntu for a number of years, but I’m also hearing increasing complaints about how Canonical is running things. I don’t think I’m ready to switch to a new distro yet, but it wouldn’t hurt to know what’s out there.

Is Kubuntu still a good choice for an “it just works” KDE-based distro, or has it been surpassed?

    Even though I’m not a huge fan of canonical, Ubuntu and its derivatives are still pretty good.

    I personally prefer Debian these days. Since Ubuntu is based on Debian, most software/support sites work just fine, but it’s not so much “in the way” as Ubuntu.

    And I have to say, the installer is very easy to use, especially if you already installed an OS before. Under half an hour.
