From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

IMHO, Debian is not the best choice for KDE, especially if you are on Wayland. KDE is a bit more buggy than GNOME, but bugs are fixed constantly at a fast pace, and Wayland support gets better. With Debian, you are stuck with the old version and have to wait 2 years for bugfixes. Kubuntu would be a better pick since it has interim releases with more recent KDE and also official backports with fresher KDE version.
Yes testing is probably better for KDE, it's great on workstations if you want a rolling release.
