You can set up QT to use GTK themes (seems like this is the default in KDE Plasma): https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Uniform_look_for_Qt_and...

I currently just don't have any QT based apps on my Arch system though I don't think.

I came at it the other way - make GTK apps look like Qt ones. Everything on my system uses Breeze Dark. The only way I can tell GTK programs from Qt ones is the "About" dialog, or the file picker. (Oh, how I wish I could use the Qt file picker in GTK programs)

(edit: QT -> Qt. Seasons greetings to the flagkilled throwaway who informed me of my mistake.)

It's not actually translating GTK themes to QT, its special themes with both QT and GTK versions.

The linked wiki page lists both.

It lists both for Qt 4, but afaiu for Qt5 you need to use special combined themes.

Ah, thanks, I think it's adwaita (mentioned there) that I picked at (pseudo)random, so maybe I already have it.

Not sure if I have any either to be honest, but that's what I mean, I like not worrying about it.

I'm a big fan of the Arc theme.
