It is just KDE though. Its just a plasma skin. But what you get by installing Wubuntu instead of a proper distro, and then applying a skin, is supporting a developer with a history of bad security practices and poor behavior. Not to mention the potential copyright issues. This whole project will probably die when Microsoft realises that someone is using their name and trademarks to sell a competing project.
Yeah, Plasma 6’s Wayland support is way better. I have no idea what Mint ships, I just know I’ve been on Plasma 6 for a few months and it’s great.
But most people don’t need Wayland. It’s great if you have high refresh monitors or monitors with different refresh rates, but your average person is probably running a single monitor setup.

Perfectly valid. I’m not endorsing the product, just explaining the use case.
Yeah, just install Mint or something with that skin installed.
Am I dumb or Mint still uses Plasma 5 on xorg by default and its wayland support is mediocre?

You sure about that?
Yes
