Well now I have the stability of bookworm and KDE safe from major upheaval.
Actually I was planning to overwrite the PCLOS DE cinnamon on my external with this Plasma version. But I knew my SID was gonna bomb out on an update sooner or later. And it did this morning - I had a big update the other day that went through surprisingly well but I knew it was only a matter of time before another breaks KDE. I was lucky for long Sid and I go way way back. I finally let in a flood of pkgs and saw it was going to remove KDE but I let it go ahead anyway for chuckles and yeah, bye bye KDE.
So I put PCLOS DE plasma where Sid (now borked) was on the internal. Result: I have one PCLOS DE internal and cinnamon external. Is that double the future-proofing?
I do have to ask since the mission of your version is to be more cutting edge - will my old laptop be inadequate as you guys move ahead? 8 year old Dell i3 8th gen. I have run one of the newest Neon's with plasma6 and didn't have a problem even on this old machine. I didn't bother installing it since the amount of updating is more than my guest wifi connection can handle.
Hope I can hang in there with you all as you continue your development

greet & thanks!
really happy with deb version, espescially the combination of plasma+deb+withoutSystemD. This version give me another breath to tackle with current modern and modernized LINUX world. As a human being, "option" is a part of live and very important to keep with, I guess.
so far, my old computer is very happy with it and works well. Previously, my old geezer computer cried alot when systemD appeared for the first time on terminal--when updating,....and it cried more and more when plasma6+wayland appeared..sigh......(the plasma6 itself is no problem for me, it is the wayland instead)
to conclude:
I really have a problem with systemD and wayland.
thanks Devs and Kudos!

I have had no issues with it. All issues were not distro related, but were caused by other things. Whereas, I've had so much trouble with Ubuntu related distros, that I have been reluctant to try other things, until lately.

relpied to Bill
glad to hear that!
yeah, the most of it not from distro itself.
as the matter of lives, how our own system combine with our own--unique hardware could potentialy procure some "default" issues here and there.
as example, when wayland "forced" as the main server for the first time, I have to manually thinkering the sddm--back then-- to be able to have a switch of graphic server manager. For just the end user, the problem like this is really not good.
as my slogan soaring:
'just give "Us" the option to choose and we would happy enough with it.'
