alt Hacker NewsWorth noting that most of these GTK4/libadwaita players are going to look out of place on anything that isn't GNOME. If you're on KDE or a tiling WM, Strawberry or one of the Qt-based options will integrate much better

I haven't really looked into this, but is it possible to make GTK4 apps look liek standard GTK2/GTK3 applications? It feels like every single modern GTK app I've encountered has that modern Rounded-Material look to them and ignores the window manager decorations.

I am running KDE, and they look just fine. If you mean they won't follow your theme, yes, but also a lot of other apps don't (e.g. Electron).
I've found that libadwaita apps tend to look at least decent outside of their native environment, whereas QT apps near-universally look terrible outside of KDE.
