Fedora Kinoite Nightly available with Plasma 6 to test! ( tim.siosm.fr )

You can try it in a VM or even on your normal install, pin your current version first to have a backup

Definitely the transition from QT5 to QT6. It Looks identical, but has better wayland support and performance.

There are also a few new and hot features which I can’t recount at the moment (it’s 4:30 in the morning), but the pointieststick blog should have the droids you’re searching for
