    If someone gets the KDE spin, let me know the impressions.

      Can someone point me to the torrent download page?
      I can't see any torrent links on their website.
      I don't trust web browser downloads when it comes to integrity.

          Going to run it alongside my arch installation in a VM with passthrough.

            My experience is, that KDE integration in Fedora is not the best. I tried it on Fedora 24 and I had to struggle with KDE Wallet which always wanted the master password when I launched Chrome. It was really annoying and when I filed a bug report on the KDE bug tracker, they said, I could install a plugin which inserts automatically my credentials for KDE Wallet. When I said that this is not a user friendly default behaviour, they said, that the distributor is responsible how they handle security.
            I've never used a desktop where some service ask me for a password when I start a browser (per session)! I've used Windows, Mac, Gnome, Unity etc. and all of them hadn't such a shitty default behaviour. After filing some KDE bugs, I switched back to Gnome...

              Did they backport the mutter-eglstream patches for NVIDIA on GNOME Wayland ?

                I really don't see your problem here. You want an app to insert your passwords automatically, but you'd rather that app itself was not password protected? Because that's what "inserts automatically my credentials" basically means.
                Oh wait, you use other OSes that do exactly that. I guess I have my answer.

                Michael I love how you call X "legacy" when it is the default on all but one distro

                  maybe it is time for you to discover checksum files accompanying isos ?

                    I have to agree with you here. It is really annoying. But basically you have to file your bug report with chromium not KDE.
