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.

Keep in mind stability in terms of Enterprise Linux refers to feature stability (i.e. a static set of features), not necessarily reliability. So if you want anything quickly, it's really the opposite place to look.
EPEL is officially part of the Fedora project, so I would be surprised if anything makes it there before mainline Fedora (unless any one knows any better).
I've not had much positive experience when I've tried KDE with RHEL/CentOS. I find the more you rely on EPEL the less of an advantage there is to using EL, and if you're planning on using EL as a base for running Flatpak apps you're probably better off with Silverblue/Kinoite which you already use.
Thanks!
