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.

Pro Tip: don't make sweeping generalizations like "KDE Breaks Bluetooth" and then claim its happening while including little to no detail.

I've been running KDE for over a decade without any such problems. KDE absolutely does not break bluetooth or removable devices.

Now perhaps the way you have set up and configured KDE isn't working right and causing problems with bluetooth and removable devices. I'd believe that but hard to know what hapoened without any details.
