I'm pretty new to gaming on Linux, does this work better than downloading steam and running proton?
Compare it to switching out the surface of the table you play boardgames on - different surfaces might feel differently, look differently, but ultimately all serve the same purpose and a game board will work the same on all of them. So really, it's mostly about finding a desktop that you like.
(We can go into details about differences, but for starters, this analogy serves well enough)
KDE is bot a way to play games, it's more of an entire desktop. If you miss having navigation bar at the bottom or a desktop full of shortcuts, try KDE.
I have kde plasma for my desktop but I (incorrectly) assumed that the article was talking about running games on kde
