I've been using Debian-based distros most of my adult Linux life, but I read recently that KDE has a better experience on Fedora than Kubuntu, so I want to try it out.

I already know that I won't be able to use apt, but what other differences should I expect with fedora?

The do not have an LTS release? What is upgrading like? When should you upgrade if you want stability?

switched to fedora coming from windows and ubuntu. I update when I feel like it (every one to two weeks). It is largely rock solid and the only times i had Trouble was because of xone, which I installed via the source and then forgot to remove/update for quite a while.

dnf and apt are quite alike, took only a short while to adjust and now i like it as much if not more.

The KDE Plasma experience is very nice. I can fully recommend Fedora
