Can this become the European Union's own Linux Distribution?

cross-posted from: lemmy.zip/post/36434036

A new community-led initiative called “EU OS” to develop a Linux distribution initiative looks like a positive development. It is specifically created to address the unique requirements of the European Union's (EU) public sector organizations. For me, this initiative stands out for its commitment to the EU's digital sovereignty, reducing reliance on external vendors, and creating a secure, independent digital ecosystem.

Can this become the European Union's own Linux Distribution?

Can this Linux-powered operating system disrupt Windows' hold in the European Union?

Just in case nobody reads the article:

EU OS is not an entirely new operating system and uses a Linux foundation based on Fedora and KDE Plasma as the desktop environment.

The main advantage of EU OS lies in its focus on standardization rather than creating something entirely new. It offers a shared Linux foundation that can be fine-tuned with additional bits, regardless of whether it be for national, regional, sector-specific, or organizational use.

I have questions about KDE as the desktop choice. It is the leading DE in terms of adding new features and Wayland development but it's quite unstable compared to something like GNOME or Cinnamon.

It's certainly less stable than Gnome or Cinnamon, but to be fair, Plasma 6 is very stable compared to Plasma 4 and how Plasma 5 was for a long while.

I use Gnome on my PCs usually, but Plasma probably seems a lot more familiar to people who are used to Windows, which I imagine was a consideration.
