[....] I can't find the setting for the desktop icon alignment with KDE.

To set the desktop icon alignment in KDE, right-click on the desktop, select "Desktop Settings," and choose "Manual"
sorting to arrange icons as you prefer.
Additionally, ensure that the "Lock Icons" option is unchecked to allow for free placement of icons.

All the fonts are too large. How do I make them smaller?

To make all the fonts smaller in KDE Sparky, open the System Settings, go to the "Appearance" section, and then select "Fonts"
From there, you can adjust the font size to your preference.

When I have Firefox open in Sparky, its appearance isn't as good as windows or other Linux distros I have used. I wonder if there are fonts missing that are altering its appearance. How can I fix this?

Using the following fonts:







I don't have the problem you are talking about:
