I'm using Bazzite Linux with KDE, and for me Wireguard setup is copy/pasting several bits of information on multiple settings pages. OpenVPN is just downloading a single config file and inputting my user/pass.
Also, Wireguard disconnects so often, no matter which distro I'm on, that it's a pain in the butt having to reconnect a few times an hour. Not to mention that I can't have it set to autoconnect on login, or my internet doesn't work until I disconnect and reconnect.
Interesting, I also use KDE (on arch btw) and I definitely have had hours-long work sessions with ssh over a wireguard vpn to access my home PC from abroad, so I imagine the issue is probably not on the KDE side of the stack
