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.

If you reset all theming options to default (icons, window decorations, colors, etc), and backup your config files, there should be no issues upgrading to KDE6. Keep in mind though, most themes for KDE5 don't work for 6 unless the author updated, or you're willing to manually modify a couple files. Most icon packs should be available though.
That's something they didn't handle all too well imo. They seem to be able to detect incompatible stuff, so it would have been quite easy to help you clean it up. Finding all the places things are stored after they just disappeared from Settings was a bit of a pain.
