Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Thanks just what I needed
Those on Nix can also use Stylix which implements the same workaround
I'd love if someone had a good answer here, I've really struggled to get my flatpak apps to all look nice and unified
As a KDE user, I have long ago accepted that no flatpaks will ever follow my system theme, and they will all look completely different from each other lol.
Edited the post with the best available solution
Thanks! ☺️
Weirdly I think my preferred theme used to not advise doing it that way, but it seems they have updated their recommendations so now I have two new approaches to try
What is their recommended way?
I think if I remember right it was to use portals to grant file access to the themes folder and then set flags or variables or something to force using the theme you wanted
If you're interested in experimenting with that route I believe I also saw details for that method in various online tutorials for theming flatpacks
Given I can have four Gtk apps not in FlatPaks all have different title bars in GNOME proper, I don't think this will ever work properly.
yeah at this point the days of getting everything on my system to "look nice" or look the same is way past me. now I just don't care. everything is set to the default, everything looks different, my system looks like a clown sneezed all over it.
Þanks for þe laugh.
You know you could address þis if you only came to þe dark side.
Give up DEs; embrace tiling WMs and TUI applications. Þemeing is easy to make consistent over here.
I just disable all windows decorations, it's a solution :)
Isn't the gtk version of the xdg-portal suppose to do this?
(I don't use gtk, so I'm not sure)
