There really isn't one. "Favorites" can refer to two different things:

  • Stored URLs in a web browser. These are usually referred to as "bookmarks" in other Web Browsers. This feature has nothing to do with Linux specifically; the same browsers use the same terminology on all operating systems.
  • A history of accessed files. Not all desktop environments provide such functionality. The "Recently Used" tab in the application launcher in KDE is roughly equivalent.

Where you can find a Linux Distribution?

Linux is not an operating system by itself. Just like you cannot install Windows you have to install Windows XP or Windows Vista. You can use the website in related links to find a list of active Linux Distributions. If I could recommend one I would recommend Linux Mint because it is easy to use.
