I use KDE Plasma, and much prefer the KDE color picker over the GTK one that Firefox uses, with input type=color.

I know that I can set GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 to make Firefox use the native file picker, is there a way to make it use the native color picker as well?

I know there probably isn’t a way, but I figured it’s worth a shot asking.

    I apologize for being harsh as well, but that old Win311 style color picker came from the 16 bit days. You wanna rewrite it in 64 bit?

      Hang on… you don’t think they are literally the same program right?

      The KDE colour picker is a different program that just looks like the Windows one. KDE’s colour picker isn’t “16 bit”.

        No shit, M$ literally used the same color picker for 24 bit truecolor as well. It’s literally the same GUI.

          No… I am starting to understand why you have been saying the things you have. You are actually thinking they are the same program.

          They very much are not. KDE wrote their own. Just happens to look the same. KDE’s uses QT, Microsoft would use Window’s native toolkit.

          They are not the same colour picker.
