What is KDE Neon, in simpler or more practical terms? How's your experience with it?
neon.kde.org
I have read the FAQ of KDE Neon: it is well made and answers ground questions like "Is it a distro?" or "Can I turn Kubuntu into KDE Neon?"
...And yet I'm confused, because I'm just a newbie in the Linux world. For instance, when they say "on top of a stable base" I don't know what's meant as a "base".
I think I understand that it isn't a distro, but it fascinates me that it's meant to be installed from an ISO or similar, just like a distro.
I wonder if any of you can explain:
- What is it, in different words?
- Why is it "implemented" as it is?
- Are there any other "quasi-distros" like KDE Neon out there?
- Do you use it? how has your experience with it been?
Cheers!

KDE Neon is new KDE with old Ubuntu. Kubuntu is old KDE with new Ubuntu
That's a neat description.
Is KDE Neon really based on Ubuntu? I seem to remember that it at least used to be based on debian stable!?
Edit: Just looked it up: It's based on Ubuntu LTS.
