How would I go about adding a buffer between an icon and the edge of the panel item? [Cinnamon]
Modify the "cinnmon.css" file to add padding to the CSS rules pertaining to these items?

Termite Is Obsoleted by Alacritty
I'm sorry, I misunderstood. There is currently no way to make all the widgets render to look like Windows widgets. You probably don't want to do that anyway.
There is another solution. Somebody could make a theme that makes the widgets look like Windows, and ship that with their windows builds, if that was desired. There are multiple themes like this for GTK3. [0] [1] I don't know if any have been ported to GTK4 yet, but they could.

Supermium – Chromium fork for Win 2003 and newer
If that's a concern for you, there are themes for GTK3 and GTK4 that replicate classic 3D widgets and remove much of the excess padding in modern apps. https://github.com/B00merang-Project/Windows-95 https://github.com/grassmunk/Chicago95 (You should install both; Chicago95 is more actively developed, but B00merang gives you a GTK+4 theme that's currently missing from Chicago95.) Works reasonably well as a daily-driver, giving you a similar look to the modern SerenityOS GUI on a standard Linux system. Even the modern GTK+4 "responsive" apps work as designed, with some non-critical graphical quirks.

OS/2 Warp, PowerPC Edition
I bloody want my Linux and apps on it to look like this or something of this flavour. Most retro themes are poor quality shams (Chicago95[1] is the only good one, yet still not perfect). I feel like I would gladly pay serious money for a really high quality conversion of all the parts, including themes for all widget libraries and no quirks.
