    Comments about KDE neon as an Alternative to Kubuntu

    Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE's Plasma desktop instead of Unity (same under the hood, different interior trim). KDE Neon is the same, except it's run with the explicit intention of providing much faster updates of the Plasma desktop so people aren't left frustrated waiting for new developments to be provided by the Kubuntu guys. Closest thing to Kubuntu you can get.
