KDE is useable now that I can use AI to deal with the thousand cuts.

TBH I was rather shocked at how bad Kubuntu is out of the box:

* Hibernate is flaky

* The OS freezes from time to time requiring a hard reset

* Snaps completely bork the system - better to just uninstall snap

* Keyring is flaky. Often you get stuck into an "enter your password" endless loop.

The list goes on - and this is on a desktop PC! But fortunately an AI can sift through the arcane workaround lore in the various forums.

The bugs are annoying, but a helluva lot better than using Gnome!
