    This seems completely subjective, unless I'm missing something. There should've even been a warning on the ask question page Commented Dec 6, 2010 at 16:24

    @Mic This Question, best distro for KDE, isn't a good Question at all. It's vague. It should have been more specifc, as in what is the OP actually interested in (EG: speed, large support base, minimal package selection) for it to be better, such that it's no longer a poll. That's what I strive to do (give specifics) when I ask these software-rec kind of questions. Commented Dec 6, 2010 at 18:20

    @Wassim I'm going to close this if it isn't cleaned up by the time I get back to work, because I count this as 2 mods saying it should be closed. I suggest, using the following qualifiers and remove wording like "best". Custom KDE/QT apps, backports, KDE devs employed or involved, skinning of gtk apps, you can have others.. but these are suggestions. Commented Dec 7, 2010 at 2:23

    @Wass Don't be so saddened. You might not be in total agreement, but at least the guys are explaining the reasons (it isn't always the case). Have a look at a related issue. It's a quality post on this sort of issue. Commented Dec 7, 2010 at 11:50

    @wassim I've modified it to be better, so at least you'll be on target for what to look for, because there is no best. You have to know what you want. 2 kde's of exactly the same version should perform exactly the same regardless of distro, and thus their shouldn't be a difference. I tried to get more details out of people than just "uh this distro has kde... and performs alright." to things that can be quantified and evaluated. consider adding more if you have other things you care about, like networking, or web browser etc. Commented Dec 7, 2010 at 12:37
