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.

Ah, that's because GTK4 and libadwaita severely restricted custom theming. They may be ways around this but I have no idea because I use just
adw-gtk3
as my theme so all my apps look uniform on Gnome.So I guess you'll either search for a way to hack this or just stick to GTK3 apps if you don't want the stock GTK4 look.
It’s not nearly as supported. There are workarounds where you can create a ~/.gtk4 directory and modify CSS yourself, or you can use a program like Gradience to modify the color scheme in an accessible way. Gradience also has community color palettes so if you’re using a popular theme it could just be a matter of loading the preset
