It's official... KDE Neon is a distro!!
First some facts: KDE neon is in fact a distro. It has an ISO you install on your system. Slimbook ships it on hardware....
The mental pretzel is finally over.

It's interesting they're changing the pitch from "everyday user" to "KDE enthusiast."
I definitely daily drove it for several years, and we even used it as our defacto developer distro at a previous job. It didn't seem to be too bad for that purpose.
Maybe not, but it sure feels bait-and-switch-esque. I suppose if that's really what KDE Neon has morphed into/is targeting now, it's better to be honest.
Nate's blog has been really encouraging people to submit bug reports. So I think the goal of Neon is to have the bleeding edge KDE with a stable base, to rule out confounding factors as much as possible. I don't think it's a bait-and-switch since the product hasn't changed. They'd probably just really rather it be used for people willing to submit bug reports.
