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.

Kde plasma seems to complex for a phone
It's not. (I have a pinephone)
I understand your concerns but if you can run it in a raspberry pi then I feel like running it on a phone should be fine
Why
I'm thinking of desktop plasma mainly. It seems to complicated to be moving and customizing Taskbars on a phone. Plasma is janky enough on pc.
That's why Plasma is built to support different shells, optimized for different form factors which allows to do this stuff like the Netbook shell in the past or now Plasma Bigscreen for TVs or Plasma Mobile for smartphones.
