From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

According to the customizing site (not the article), it's KDE Neon.

From the Neon site:

KDE neon is the intersection of these needs using a stable Ubuntu long-term release as its core

Not much different to Kubuntu really. In practice it's just updated more often with latest Kde patches and has flatpaks enabled
