--- Comment #3 from Alex Ivanov <gnidorah at ya.ru> ---
> My strong suggestion is for you to change the GSettings, if you're running under Wayland, instead of trying to use a key/value file for everything

That's hard to achieve outside of Gnome, because then I need to figure what
exact parts of Gnome (gnome session, gnome settings and etc daemons) to run to
get Gtk3 applications see my dconf settings.
Also available customization programs like lxappearance or kde-gtk-config still
use settings.ini.

> Alternatively, remove dconf, and GTK will use the settings.ini file

Strange, but that doesn't work for me. If dconf is not available, then
gdkscreen-wayland uses built-in defaults
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk+/tree/gdk/wayland/gdkdisplay-wayland.c#n1571
forcibly overriding GtkSettings.
Here's another user having the same issue
