Disclaimer: I'm not affiliated in any way to any of the parties involved in this review. I just enjoy reading Solène's writings in general and found myself to be especially in fond of this specific article. I share this in the hopes that others might somehow benefit from this as well!

The relevance of the review for this specific community would be that NovaCustom produces excellent laptops to be used with Linux (and other open source operating systems). Furthermore, in the review the reviewer installs a bunch of distros and tests how they work on the device.

You can even install KDE on Mint, and configure it however you want.

Personally, I'd advice against this as KDE is not supported on Linux Mint. While this doesn't have to mean much, it does mean a lack of polish and sophistication you might expect on Kubuntu or Fedora's KDE Spin or openSUSE (on which KDE is the default DE). This might result in some edge-case bugs and other mishaps that might trample your experience; thus giving you the wrong idea about KDE. Instead; consider booting into a Live USB of any distro that comes with KDE by default.
