> find Debian Testing good enough for latest KDE Plasma

Latest as in "lagging for weeks while people in Ubuntu eat the bugs".

People on Arch are eating the bugs too. I think KDE would go MUCH farther if they just made their tooling a little easier and bundled that well enough. They wouldn't need a separate distro.

Ubuntu and Debian have the same maintainers for KDE and nearly identical packages so bugs are shared.

And? Regardless most bugs probably get fixed before landing in Debian.

I also never said “latest” packages. That is some heavy lifting done by you.
