Looking for suggestions besides Kubuntu, KDE Neon, Debian, Arch Linux, or Kali. I have previous experience with XFCE, Ratpoison, Openbox, KDE Plasma. Recently started trying out LXQT.

Would be on a modest Dell Latitude with i5, 14" 1080p display with intel graphics, and maybe 16gb ram.

    I just installed it on a workstation. I’m mostly used to seeing it. Headless but it looks pretty nice with KDE. Alma is a fedora branch and RHEL is generally stable and just works.

      Why not base Fedora? A lot of people are saying that with default gnome. I’ve never even tried yum, so either would be something new.

        Yum/dnf is easy it works just like apt get

        Ie: yum install htop

        As for why Alma, it’s what I’m most familiar with coming from a Centos background. And from what I remember and can tell Alma seems much more stable than centos. While still not constantly changing things every 6months like fedora does
