    I love KDE. I've used it with Arch, Debian/Ubuntu, and Fedora underneath.

    But Discover, the graphical software installer, is terrible. It crashes constantly, updates take forever to load, and now I'm watching it freeze up as it creates a bug report.

    I tend to use the terminal for most package management stuff, but sometimes I like browsing a graphical software repository. Are there any alternatives to Discover that work well with KDE?

    @rwg no unified solution, I think, i. e. nothing including both repositories and flathub. idk whether there are other Qt GUIs for managing flatpaks, because this is what I use Discover for. For everything coming as a normal package I use myrlyn, basically the Qt/KDE version of "Synaptic".
