It mostly covers installation, which has been for the most part the same for a long time.

Thank you for your comment!

This was my first experience with KDE Neon, so I can't compare the installation to an installation of an earlier version.

Was there any information missing that you would have liked to read? I would appreciate any feedback you can provide!

Ok, feedback of one: I don't care about the installation. I can install anything just fine. Should I though? Is this version better than the last one? Is it better than windows? Mac os? True os? How is it better? Should i care about kde neon? What if i am mainstream Ubuntu with that gnome ui that wants to be MacOs (or wherever it is lately), will Neon appeal to me, why?

Stuff like that, otherwise you provided yet another installation process screenshots and we have enough of them lately.

It is my purpose to provide enough information so that anyone reading my articles can answer these questions for themselves, but I agree that there is definitely still a lot of room for improvement.

Thank you for your feedback!

The rolling GUI/LTS underpinning is the unusual thing about KDE Neon. So I'd find a second review after about 6 months and at least one major KDE version update of interest - any glitches? config files need delete/or OK? That kind of thing.

Might also be fun to show various end user activities using KDE Plasma 5 oriented software (photos with digiKAM, music management, audio applications &c) and if they have got the desktop indexing and search sorted out yet.

Rather than how to install this article should be about WHY you should install KDE.

Features, software, etc.
