Fedora 35 via COPR

You can install Plasma Beta via the KDE SIG's COPR: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/marcdeop/plasma/

Gentoo

While no live ISO is available, 5.24 Beta is available (masked) in the official Gentoo ebuild repository, as usual, to build it from source. ~arch users simply unmask it via this /etc/portage/package.unmask file, while arch users will additionally need kde-plasma-5.24.accept_keywords and kde-frameworks-5.90.accept_keywords files.

Gentoo users may easily test changes posted by developers for testing before committing via user patches mechanism.

FreeBSD

While the packages are not built on the build cluster, you can fork the port tree from

https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports-kde/tree/plasma5-5.24

and build them yourself.
