You're correct it's not, but it's more a problem that KNewStuff doesn't really have much in the way of a concept of content types. We could arguably begin filtering out download entries from the list which aren't supported, but we would need a heuristic that makes sense for literally any type of content you can conceive of. The tag filtering may well work for this purpose, but in the meantime, please report this to the author of that entry (who I guess hasn't quite understood what the uploaded data gets used for).

Created attachment 130275 [details] Screenshot. SystemSettings -> Symbols -> Get New Symbols and search for "OS Catalina" By "zayronXIO". If you click on "install" you are also offered to download a screen recording. I am not sure if this is in the sense of the GHNS feature?
