looking around online it seems possible but apparently not a good experience? i think the posts were a bit old so maybe something has changed since then
Edit: i don’t want to hop distro, i just want to change the desktop manager.

Or if OP wants to stay in the Debian/Ubuntu based brach KDE Neon, Debian + KDE (+ LMDE repo), or Kubuntu 22.04 + Mint repos.
i’d rather not hop distros entirely, the way in understand it desktop interfaces like cinnamon and plasma run on top of the actual OS, so it’s possible to swap them without having to reinstall. i could very well be wrong tho
Yes, that works. Just install some KDE plasma desktop metapackage of your choice and, if you like, you can remove cinnamon and related GTK packages afterwards by removing
libgtk.neat! gonna try in in a vm first
Always a good idea
I used Kubuntu and KDE Neon in the past. Cannot recommend them really.
KDE Neon maybe as they ship the modernized desktop, but people had tons of issues on the Plasma 6 upgrade, while on Fedora Kinoite literally nothing happened.
