Always the latest and greatest KDE applications und OS updates based on a rolling release (but the core is Ubuntu Xenial LTS). I guess there is no easy way to migrate a whole macOS system to a Linux based one (like having a iOS app that states "Click here and all data is being migrated to iOS from your old Android phone")
Years ago I migrated from OS X to Kubuntu. Back then KDE was far and away the easiest to reconfigure to Mac's keyboard shortcuts.
KDE apps used to be integrated well too which felt a lot like Mac. Some also lacked polish, but they made up for it in customization and theming options which put OSX to shame.
Looks like white Windows 8 ?
The recent discussion about Elementary OS [1] showed good aesthetics and positive response [2].
Honest question, does it bring any significant benefits apart from being on 'The latest and greatest of KDE community software packaged on a rock-solid base.' ?
I would recommend Elementary OS to non powerusers because of the easy look and feel. KDE neon is also based on Ubuntu (Xenial LTS) but has way more stuff and tweaks. Just try both
I've never actually considered using KDE (Plasma in the early days was really laggy), but seeing this posts makes me want to actually try KDE Neon. I guess it's time to dust off the trusty ol' netbook.
