I also find KDE to be a real mixed bag. Every time I have tried it, thinking “maybe it got better”, it has ranged from being a bit buggy to “holy shit this is well broken”. I may just have been really unlucky but I have been burned too many times and now avoid it altogether.

i could make a mean comment, but i recently switched from mint to ultramarine kde and i could swear it’s buggier than w11. literally every time i look at it wrong i need to reboot.

I have experience in KDE being a bit buggy too. It’s kinda crazy how powerful it is, but I guess more “moving parts” means more breakage.
After a while, I moved away from KDE.
I haven’t used KDE Plasma since Plasma 6 came out, though. I’ve heard people say it’s a lot less janky, so maybe my experience is no longer the case. Nowadays the only interaction I have with KDE is the 1% of the time my steam deck spends in desktop mode.

I’ve had very few problems with KDE Plasma (on Fedora) since I swapped to it like a year ago. Discover is being weird every now and then, but I mostly use dnf directly anyways.

Have you tried launching Discover through the terminal?
