I still am looking for this magical theme that makes QT apps feel like it fits on a GNOME desktop. Like, not matter how much you theme, the UX is going to be different and that can't really be changed without rewriting the entire app in a different toolkit with the target UX in mind.
GNOME and KDE UX are completely different. One gives you the bare necessaties of options mostly behind a hamburger menu and a nice amount of padding, while the other throws every option and the kitchen sink at you with a relativly high dencity of content. They target different people, which is fine as no size fits all.
