    Yes, KDE runs on all kinds of Linux distros, either as an option or by default, and even on some non-Linux operating systems!

    The best way to learn about Linux, in my opinion, is to run it for day-to-day things. Either in a virtual machine (under Windows) or in a dual-boot configuration (where you pick which OS to boot at startup). That , when you run into something you want to do but can’t (easily) on Linux, you can switch back. I’d recommend getting started with a beginner friendly distribution of Linux ((K)Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, Debian) rather than Arch or any of its many derivatives, because Arch presumes you have quite a bit of Linux knowledge or are willing to do a deep dive and learn from the ground up.

    There are also books you can find online that try to explain Linux, but I don’t have any experience with them. The ones that aren’t free are the best, in my experience, but paid products can sometimes be gained for free on the Internet 😜
