What to distro to hop to next?
So been trying out Garuda Linux for a while now (my first distro), but feel ready to try another distro. Therefore looking for a distro that suits my preferred requirements, anyone has any tips?
- Uses Wayland
- Supports flatpak
- ButterFS format
- KDE Plasma
- "Good for gaming"
Note: Got nothing negative about Garuda, I just want to explore the options out there :)---

To add to this: Debian is pretty conservative in regards to package versions. The current and LTS versions usually have slightly older packages.
If you don’t mind tackling more updates, I suggest Debian Testing. That is the stable development branch for the next major release, currently rocking it with Wayland GNOME on my DELL notebook and very happy with the results.
I've always found testing interesting. On one hand, packages have gone through more testing and usage than with sid, but on the other hand, it could be weeks until some major bug gets fixed. Have you experienced any of the latter?
No, so far no bugs worth mentioning. All works well, apart from more incoming updates than usually on a Debian System.
The problems I ran into were mostly with GNOME and Hotkeys for Apps in Wayland. Like Shift + F12 to open a Terminal does not work reliably when set in the Terminal app, but works well when set in the Gnome Settings as a global Shortcut. But I would file that under annoyance rather then a serious bug.
