Fedora KDE is not a spin anymore. Fedora embraced KDE fully now. Which is nice.
I feel somewhat bad for using Fedora (IBM Redhat and all), but it has been unmatched on keeping up with current applications while being absolutely painless to use.
I have updated this laptop through three major versions and I have not had a thing to do yet. It is as up to date as my Cachyos laptop with zero effort.
What do you mean by free? Why did only those two make your list?
In general, I recommend Fedora KDE Spin (or Fedora Kinoite if you know what containers are)
For your question, I would go for debian. But the answer also depends on your use-case. Software dev? CLI user? Gamer?
