What's the best easy KDE-based Linux distro these days? (kbin.social)

I'm not a beginner anymore, but I'm much less interested in technical tinkering for its own sake than I used to be. These days I just want my computer to work properly without too much intervention from me.

I've been using Kubuntu for a number of years, but I'm also hearing increasing complaints about how Canonical is running things. I don't think I'm ready to switch to a new distro yet, but it wouldn't hurt to know what's out there.

Is Kubuntu still a good choice for an "it just works" KDE-based distro, or has it been surpassed?

Arch base (the difficulty of installing base arch is overstated, especially now that you can use archinstall), though here be tinkering to get it going. If not arch base then endeavorOS, purists will tell you its not arch but it really do be arch, basically. Both archinstall and endeavor will let you set up KDE on install.
