Thanks for the detailed review!

For calendar and mail, I wonder if you've tried mozilla thunderbird with the lightning plugin? The lightning plugin has a feature to sync with your google calendar.

kde neon's having a base of ubuntu lts and yet keeping the kde part in a rolling release sounds cool. I might try it on my laptop.

Yes, I did try Thunderbird. It used to be my main email client many years ago, so it was my first choice back again on Linux. The problem with it was a complete lack of integration with KDE's system tray. No icon, no way to background Thunderbird, no integration with the native notification system. I'm currently using Mailspring which looks great and has many interesting features
