Yes, they do handle decoherence better. Here is a video explaining the theory behind the particles that are used to perform topological quantum computation [0]. I emphasize that unlike superconducting, quantum dots, ion traps, photonic e.t.c; topological quantum computers have not been physically realized because non-abelian anyons have not been detected.
