What is CentOS 9 Linux - https://centos.org

The CentOS Linux distribution is a stable, predictable,
manageable and reproducible platform derived from the
sources of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). We are now
looking to expand on that by creating the resources needed
by other communities to come together and be able to build
on the CentOS Linux platform. And today we start the process
by delivering a clear governance model, increased 
transparency and access. In the coming weeks we aim to 
publish our own roadmap that includes variants of
the core CentOS Linux. The CentOS Project is a 
community-driven free software effort focused around
the goal of providing a rich base platform for open 
source communities to build upon. We will provide a 
development framework for cloud providers, the hosting 
community, and scientific data processing, as a few examples.
We work with several ‘upstream’ communities to help them layer
and distribute their software more effectively on a 
platform they can rely on.

What is KDE - https://kde.org

Use Plasma to surf the web; keep in touch with colleagues, friends
and family; manage your files, enjoy music and videos; and get
creative and productive at work. Do it all in a beautiful environment
that adapts to your needs, and with the safety, privacy-protection and
peace of mind that the best Free Open Source Software has to offer.
Plasma is a Desktop =)
