I’m on MacOS Catalina using 3.8. I didn’t think my tabs were as large as the 
photo, but I think that is a perception due to the photo being a closeup. It 
seems I too have some padding in the tab and between the tabs.

I’ll note that with left-side tabs (not sure of other placements) the tab area 
will expand to accommodate the longest title. (I also haven’t tested the limit 
of this)

In the photo there is a long tab name near the bottom. (looks like a report) 
This widens the tab bar and makes the shorter tab names look like they have 
excessive spacing.

The only solution I can think of is to use top or bottom placement. This would 
shrink each tab to fit, but will of course allow fewer tabs to be visible 
without scrolling.

In the meantime, I’ll fire up my gtkinspector and find the css nodes for that 
part of the UI and offer some declarations to try. I should be able to report 
back with those later today.

Regards,
Adrien
