TLDR:
Windows 11 v24H2 and beyond will have Recall installed on every system. Attempting to remove Recall will now break some file explorer features such as tabs.

A distro is way more than just package managers, it's also the level of testing before deployment, and a shitload of configuration and design decisions.

That said, everything from one distro can generally be configured to work like it does in another distro, but it's not always easy.

If you want to try Linux, jump right into it, if there's something you don't like, maybe another Distro or DE has fixed that exact thing, and it's easy to swap.

Ya, also you can just check them out on a "live" thumbdrive, say put Linux mint or whatever distro on a thumbdrive, boot from it and see if you like it. If you don't, just remove the thumbdrive and reboot, no harm done.
