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.

I set those using the Sustem Settings (KDE) and Tweaks (GNOME). To me all fonts look a bit different between Gnome and KDE.
Choose a font and size, then do screenshots of the same word on kde and gnome. Then open gimp, put each screenshot in a layer, align them and make it show the difference. Then you objectively know if and how they're different
Can you share the exact settings and screenshots to compare?
Are you using gnome x11 or gnome wayland and plasma x11 or plasma wayland?
