I find KDE works well with GTK3 and below, but GTK4 apps are set to ignore themes, which is a design decision on the GTK4 side. They invariably look completely odd and out of place as they often force the entire Gnome app UI as well as an unalterable theme.
And then Flatpaks also don’t generally follow system themes as they’re so sandboxed (although there are some work arounds, including making them consistent as flatpaks or allowing them access to the system theme folders to pick up themeing).
But anecdotally I’ve not had the level of title bar variability on KDE as that screenshot. Although admittedly I do tend to actively avoid Gnome apps as I don’t like the design philosophy.
Does anyone know if KDE is any better with this?

yes because kde supports client-side decorations and server-side decorations. gnome only supports client-side decorations
I find KDE looks nicer but it always runs like shit on my machine. Skill issue probably
This is the first time I’m hearing something like this. People usually complain about exactly opposite of it!
A little? You can theme Gtk apps to match, but it’s not pixel perfect even with the stock theme.
Its always slightly off on padding and margins, but the overall outcome looks more uniform
