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.

It's easier to stick to adwaita default and try to uniform others to it (that's because libadwaita apps are not themable).

And install kvantum for flatpak too.
thanks a lot for the pointers, it's so nice to see that people try to help
but it is just exhausting trying to unify everything
and the next flatpak is a new fight :)
I feel you... I hope in the future they'll work together to unify this mess.
standards.xkcdFreedesktop exists for a reason.
