One of the best aspects of using a Linux system is that there are many popular desktop environments to choose from. If you do not like the style or behavior of yours, it is simple enough to install a different one. When it comes to the KDE Plasma desktop environment, there are a few different ways to experience it.

Ubuntu Linux comes with KDE Plasma preinstalled on their Kubuntu distro, and Fedora Linux has a KDE “spin” that can be downloaded and also comes with KDE Plasma preinstalled. If both sport the same desktop environment, some users may be wondering what the real differences are between the two systems.

KDE Plasma comes not only as a graphical user interface, but also includes a slew of applications (over 200; some installed by default and some not) that integrate into the desktop environment and give the user a more unified experience that flows together. If you are ready to try out KDE Plasma, you have a few choices. First of all, you can install it the same way you would any other desktop environment – right from your system’s package manager. But you can also choose from the Kubuntu or KDE Fedora spin distributions.

So, which one should you choose? We will go over all the details in this article and help you make an informed decision.
