Why Chrome apps/windows do not follow GTK theme?












1















I use Linux but at a noob level. Usually Most of the time I use Ubuntu based distros.



My browser of choice is Google Chrome.



Services as Netflix, Tweetdeck, etc., I use them as "apps" opened in their own window, but I don't know why, they do follow entirely the GTK theme.



Netflix Chrome App:

On the image you can see the fonts on the window title bar are in black and the window borders are in a light color.



Google Chrome:

Google Chrome looks ok as the rest of my system: dark themed and light colored fonts.



As anyone any idea why this happens and if there is any way to fix it?
