Wow. I remember testing out Fedora 8, and finally being convinced by Fedora 10 to switch. It's been a while.

Anyway, final Fedora 30 should work in Basic Graphics Mode just fine.

Oh noo, I just ordered Dell XPS 13 (9380) because my Macbook Air is too limited in CPU and RAM for development and has problem with Fedora 30's Wifi (29 was fine). I hope I can at least run Fedora 30 perfectly on it despite any installation hurdles

Fedora works perfectly on my XPS 13 9370. Pretty sure it will also work on the 9380.Originally posted by phoenk View PostI just received my 9380 yesterday, and the first thing I did was install the F30 beta. It has been smooth sailing so far, everything appears to Just Work (tm).

Note that Fedora KDE packages have been supported by the larger community of volunteers as well as some Red Hat developers for a long time. Spins are also official and in particular KDE is part of the QA blocker bugs process along with GNOME

Not trying to troll here but, I always wondered why none of the "big" distros pick up KDE as an officially supported desktop? Like, who's KDE really? KDE Neon? Kubuntu? is OpenSuSe really a KDE official guy? and by official I mean, they actually support the environment and block releases based on it.
Arch is neutral, Debian is neutral, but then Ubuntu, Fedora are Gnome guys. Manjaro, OpenMX is XFCE (I guess), then you have cool dudes like budgie or mint with CinnamonLast edited by JeansenVaars; 16 April 2019, 05:40 PM.

KDE being one of their flagships is a big reason why I'm a Manjaro user. Stable, runs well, not overloaded with daily updates like on Arch, no major overhaul upgrades like with Ubuntu or Fedora -- it suites all my needs very well and I honestly feel bad giving them a review the middle of a Fedora thread.
To help answer your question, here's what KDE has to say on what to use when developing and contributing to KDE:
While any operating system can be used to patch or develop KDE software, it's easiest if you use a Linux distribution that provides relatively recent versions of Qt and KDE Frameworks, such as KDE Neon, openSUSE Tumbleweed, Arch/Antergos/Manjaro, Fedora, or non-LTS versions of Ubuntu.
