Why wouldn't you consider Debian? I run it on a firewall, my personal
computer, our media center and two music server rasberry PIs.
I run some stations KDE, some XFCE and some headless.
There is no requirement to take snapd.
If you feel Debians release cycle is too slow, follow the testing branch
as I do.
Development environments, editors, text and graphics manipulation, git
tooling, servers: its all there.

Thanks. Ugh.
Your timing is perfect, because I'm just about to do a fresh install and
this would be the time to decide on something else.
I'm looking for an alternative that will offer support for a KDE version
as well as Steam and my fairly-new AMD graphics card (RX 6500 XT). I'd
also prefer to live snap-free.
Mint and Pop don't support KDE, SuSE has problems with Steam and I'm
exhausted enough that I don't want one more learning curve wrt the Arch
way of doing things. Right now my best choices appear to be MX, KDE Neon
(if I install the 32-bit libraries for Steam) and (if I want to go back
to an RPM-based system for the first time since Mandriva ceased,) Fedora
KDE.
Any suggestions, either from these choices or something else? Thanks again.

[Last paragraph]
I think the launch of Ubuntu 22.04 is a clear sign Canonical is much
more interested in publishing releases on a set schedule than producing
something worthwhile. This version was not ready for release and
it's is
probably going to be a costly endeavour to maintain this collection of
mixed versioned software and mixed display server and mixed designs for
a full five years. It's a platform I would recommend avoiding.
