# Dark theme support in GTK 3 apps
Some old applications, like Rhythmbox, do not support the GTK 4 / Adwaita theme on modern distributions like Fedora.
Even though there are many solutions available,
I'm using this simple fix that requires just an application restart after making the change:
``` ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
[Settings]
gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=1
```
## Integrations
### CSS patch for i3wm
Also, found this file in my backup folder, so let's keep it here, as it may be needed elsewhere (suppose in i3wm case)
``` ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css
.window-frame {
box-shadow: none;
margin: 0;
}
```
### Adwaita theme port
Personally, I'm not using it, but it would be helpful at some point:
