I use KDE Neon and opt out of the non-free drivers/codecs. It's the best distro as far as I'm concerned.

I just finished installing and setting up KDE Neon. I got a really good first impression, there's not much proprietary software (only some drivers here and there, and they can be replaced), everything is super slick and good-looking, generally it just feels like a solid OS. Thanks for your recommendation comrade!

The new release is about to come out with tons of improvements too. Great time to hitch a ride.
Did you click the button to install third party proprietary software? I didn't and never had any problems with my NUC, it only needs open source drivers.

I actually did, since i didn't have the energy at the moment to manage tons and tons of driver issues without WiFi. I'm thinking I'll get rid of the proprietary drivers one by one, and then install new drivers as soon as i bump into issues. Seems like a better solution than getting bombarded with broken WiFi, broken bluetooth, broken trackpad, broken audio, broken graphics and so on as soon as everything is installed.

I guess I'm lucky my computer supports everything out of the box without third party packages.

Ever tried openSUSE Tumbleweed? It's rolling release, KDE.
