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.

It is using a system color picker. That's the gtk color picker. You'd need to configure xdg-portal to utilize a different picker I'm pretty sure.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/XDG_Desktop_Portal might point you in the direction you're looking for... Not 100% on this though... maybe switch from portal-gtk to portal-kde?

Alright, I’ll look into this. Thank you.
