Kde defaults to a windows style layout, but it's very configurable by design. You can freely add and customize panels with different widgets. Kde has different design philosophies than Gnome. Even with a similar dock + menu bar layout, features vary or are handled differently.

I run Gnome (Ubuntu currently) and have minor stability issues. I also just… kinda don’t like Ubuntu. Previously I was running Fedora and liked it more but again, stability issues (which was what I was hoping to solve moving to Ubuntu).

Do you have any suggestions for a novice friendly distro that has (or can easily be set up to have) a dock (that can be hidden) and hot corner window switching like gnome under KDE?

That's just a thing that KDE does, regardless of which distro you run it on. If you want stability, Debian is probably a good choice, but KDE is KDE wherever you go.
