Gnome doesn't need any more KDE Connect clients. GSConnect is pretty much perfect and most importantly, is integrated into the Quick Settings. What I have always been puzzled by is the near absence of KDE Connect clients for tiling compositors. I would love to one day use KDE Connect in a way that feels native for something like Sway.

This is not a Gnome client. It is a gtk based client which doesn't require Gnome. It is also from the author of GSConnect.
GTK may be a universal GUI tool kit but the description "Gnome Tool Kit" is more appropriate.
It's not about Gnome.

Other desktops exist that use GTK. Such as Mate, which is still a very decent desktop and show just how far Gnome has fallen in the past decade. Some of us are very happy to have an application which will work for us that doesn't require pulling in Gnome's junk or KDE's junk.

This works on other desktops besides Gnome
Pretty sure it works on Gnome as well. One would say that's the main target.
