How to make Flatpaked GNOME apps look okay on KDE ? (jlai.lu)

They all look bad for some reason, sometimes even completely unreadable because of the lack of padding between lines of text or dark-on-dark text color.

Thanks

I just avoid GTK apps as much as possible, thankfully the few I do use look decent enough but only because they follow darkmode atleast.

Here's the thing though : Flatpaked KDE apps look perfect on GNOME. So I'd like to be able to use the same set of apps on both.

I made some notes while I had a problem with Zim flatpak not following Breeze GTK theme:

https://docs.flatpak.org/en/latest/desktop-integration.html#applying-themes //The applications will try to match the system theme currently being used, if it corresponds to any of the Flatpak themes installed, and will fall back to Adwaita (if they use Gtk2 or Gtk3) or the default Qt theme (if they use Qt) if a corresponding theme isn’t detected.//

== Solution: == ''flatpak override --user --filesystem=xdg-config/gtk-3.0:ro''
Source: https://github.com/flathub/org.gtk.Gtk3theme.Breeze#workarounds
( I tried to install ''org.gtk.Gtk3theme.Breeze-Dark/x86_64/3.22'' but //"This theme has been replaced by org.gtk.Gtk3theme.Breeze, see README for workaround on using system color schemes. https://github.com/flathub/org.gtk.Gtk3theme.Breeze#workarounds"////////
Context: Kubuntu 22.04 KDE Plasma 5.24.7

So I executed flatpak override --user --filesystem=xdg-config/gtk-3.0:ro and it didn't output any error, but it changed nothing regarding apps that look bad, unfortunately...

Thanks

Did you install the Flatpak org.gtk.Gtk3theme.Breeze ?

You can check by running flatpak list
