I just install stuff on Kubuntu without knowing for which environment it was created. It's possible that Kubuntu has the necessary Gnome support files to make it all work. I added other app stores too. It all just seems to work without me needing to know how.

Every Linux distribution packages the dependencies for the software they distribute and will automatically install them if you don't already have them. If you're trying to install GNOME software on KDE and you don't have the necessary GNOME dependencies installed, the package manager will just install them for you. This is why using applications cross-desktop isn't something the average user typically has to worry about. It should just work.
