Yes it is an Arch base. Not sure on the apparmor stuff and snap is basically banned from the Arch repos so it's relegated to the AUR which makes it a pain.

Same steps, different base, no customisation, upgrades on day 1 of release. Probably a few more things. I also ❤️ Kinoite so nothing against them.
It's just Arch with Plasma then...
Yeah that's certainly annoying but still relying on SDDM to solve this. There is a movement to see if we can import SDDM into the KDE umbrella but it's a bit stalled at the moment.
I'm a bit the same but I tried the switching between versions and it's amazing.
Harald, the main architect behind it is already running it as his daily driver. Many others (myself included) are already testing it in VMs and on spare hardware with only very minor papercut issues to be resolved.
Debain/Ubuntu are always a little behind on library and Qt versions etc. For example with KDE Neon on an LTS they had to overlay/patch many libraries which ended up breaking most of the Qt applications that users could install from the Ubuntu repo. Arch is almost always up to date with the latest stable releases of libraries and Qt making it an ideal base for KDE Plasma which is a fast moving desktop.
I have, but I also learned a few new things about column from this video, nice!
