Kate and Okular count as "aren't well known"? Because I love them.
Also I love the Global menu for Plasma.

Kate is great!
KolourPaint is my pick. I love that there's a paint equivalent for quick jokes while screen sharing or trash drawings
Okteta. A hex editor is always useful.
qBittorrent, I use it instead of KTorrent
Same, super stable and cross platform as well.
Qmmp and Kpat.
Kpat is one of the best solitaire implementations that exist. I play daily
Same here. Kpat is the first application I install on a new machine.
K3b for CD ripping, Kid3 for tagging audio files!
The Kasts podcast player is great
qView simple and fast image viewer, I don't need the bells and whistles of most image viewer apps, qView is a simple to the point app like old feh but integrates well will KDE.
I use Strawberry too and in general it is great. Sadly it still lacks some features I need, so I still need foobar2000 with wine on the side (for library management, stuff like viewing and editing all custom tags, renaming files according to tags instead of copying them, ...)
RKward, a great R IDE!
Firealpaca is how I discovered kde and I don't see it mentioned too often, so I will take my chances and say that. However it's the only kde program I know of that isn't FOSS. But I typically prefer it's simplicity over the bells and whistles of gimp and sometimes krita.
But it doesn't even run in KDE, it doesn't seem to have a Linux version.
It sadly doesn't have a linux version cause it's not foss. But according to the about firealpaca window, it primarily is coded in QT.

KDE is a community that uses, contribute to and extend the Qt framework, that is an industry standard, tons of software is developed with it 🙂
There's lots of non FOSS software for Linux, that's not an issue at all. One such program you're probably running is Steam.
