PCLinux KDE-Lasted only 20 Minutes in my NUC

Yes, PCLinux lasted only 20 minutes on my NUC.
It advertised that it has Synaptic Package Manager.
It did not.
I looked at its repository.
It did not.
Installed AbiWord.
It assumed my NUC as a laptop.
Ruined my GRUB.
Erased it with REBORN OS, immediately.
I wanted see if there are other KDE dedktops better than BlueStar Linux.
PCLinux was the Ugliest of all KDE desktops.
Even KaOS and Trinity OS appear better for me. I am going to try Netrunner Linux now which was my favourite with Synaptic Package Manager in place.
However, from February 2025, no UPDATES (?Gone defunct), of its ISO Image. 
That is why I did not install it till today.

Most of the Linux Distributions except Debian and a few ARCH based distributions assume that only Windows exist. 
The guys developing so called XX Linux believe that there are no other Linux Distributions available to Test Drive. Besides KDE guys ask for money which annoys me.
If KDE is good people would be willing to pay. I wonder whether KDE guys put a RAW distributions with faults and gut money  for additional "Face Lifts".
Bottom line is KDE unlike GNOME lack software. It another Desktop only.
Redhat and SuSe also use this tactics to luvre clients.
PCLinux fall into this inferiority Complex. That may be the reason, I dropped it long time ago. It is still based on Madriva which has gone defunct.
I pity guys using PCLinux.
These distributions are the ones that bring bad reputation to Linux in general.
That is why I am critical of them.
