    True to some extent, and I do this, but some aspects are unavoidable. For example the GTK save/open dialogue is used by Firefox, and it sucks (why can’t I type the fucking path in?). There aren’t good and popular alternative browsers that use Qt or any other toolkit with a decent dialogue.

      If you’re on Plasma, rt-click the start menu and Edit Applications. Find Firefox and into the environment line add GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 and save it.

      This is something I do on every new install because the GTK dialogs with their buttons at the top and every other thing wrong with them hurts me deep inside to witness.
