People mostly seem to like KDE Plasma more than GNOME, but Ubuntu still seems way more popular. Will Kubuntu ever overtake Ubuntu? Will people ever default to saying Kubuntu instead of saying Ubuntu even when speaking generally about *buntus?

Same questions for other distros like Fedora/Fedora KDE

Simply no. Canonical always used GNOME and I don't see that's changing.

From the user's point of view, if you discovered KDE you might have discover other distros as well. Kubuntu still be your start point though, or even where you settle.
