Modern Adwaita for GTK 2 apps?
1 project | /r/gnome | 16 Nov 2022

I used gtk-chtheme to set my GTK2 theme to this one: https://gitlab.com/hrdwrrsk/AdwMod-theme , it matches the "old" default Adwaita GTK3 theme and blends rather nicely with my other apps.
Is there a way to reduce title bar height of apps in gnome.

For gtk2 apps (I still use a few, like Gimp, Hexchat and NetRadiant), I use the gtk2 variant of this theme: https://gitlab.com/hrdwrrsk/AdwMod-theme

I even tried AdwMod compact theme but it was also too big. So, ultimate I stuck with Fluent gtk theme because it was the most compact theme I could find.
Is there any compact version of Adwaita?

Major Gnome theme issues on Fedora 37,Gnome 43.
1 project | /r/gnome | 27 Dec 2022

Firstly, i was using the Orchis Gnome theme, a few days ago, and i didn't like the fact that there was no light mode, so i deleted said GTK theme manually, by deleting it from the .themes folder, both in my local usr, and the Admin usr , and the shared usr folder as well, However, as you can see in this pic (https://imgur.com/a/VHtDLDP). I also followed this guide to unninstall Orchis once and for all-.
