I just want a Debian-based distro with KDE that's not poisoned by Canonical's nonsense
Have you tried Debian?
I'm currently on debian. I wrote this comment as a response to the Debian slander in the meme.
Just do a quick simple sudo apt-get install task-kde-desktop
Man Nvidia users are going to be stoked when the get explicit sync in they're desktop environments in two years. 😂 They're have been so many small improvements in the Nvidia drivers up until that point I hope they actually update Nvidia drivers on Debian. I understand some of those improvements are not going to work because of the kernel version and the desktop versions.
You can choose KDE as desktop environment during Debian installation, or replace whatever DE you installed at any time.
I think you're looking for Debian. If you want newer packages, run testing instead of stable.
MX ?
KDE Neon?
It's Ubuntu based
But afaIk without 'Canonical's nonsense', e.g. snap Firefox.
updating packages in kde neon is like playing russian roulette, it's worse than pop os in my experience
During usual updates? Or during the major release jump of KDE Plasma from 5.x to 6.x?
I'm using mxlinux "ahs" version, it comes with kde at their "ahs" repos for supporting latest hardware and graphics cards. You may also check for the non-ahs, there might be a meta-package for kde plasma and that's it..

Why do you need it to be Debian-based?
Same, that's why I'm using Q4OS
