How do I reduce dock scaling in 30.2? Its way too large now

Specifically, the Sources dock and Audio Mixer dock have increased in scaling in 30.2 to an inconvenient degree. Theres way too much scrolling now required in the sources dock because the font is so large, and the audio mixer dock, already in vertical layout, has multiple bars not able to fit any longer within the window size Ive created for the dock. This seems to have been a change made across all skins. Theme Yami, and style classic is the best option, but its still too large. All other styles are ridiculously huge, practically at joke levels of scaling.

This scaling isnt an issue for other docks such as chat and activity feed, since you can right click and zoom in/out. But theres no such functionality for the Sources or Audio Mixer dock that I can see.

How do I downsize the insides of these two docks? They are really a hassle now due to being scaled up so much....

Can you attach screenshots of the UI before/after?

For test purposes you can run previous version of OBS in portable mode, in different folder. About portable mode of OBS read after the "if it was not clear" words: https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/crash-with-«could-not-find-locale-ini-path»-when-opening-app-settings.82157/post-346499

As for the:

Likely, you can change UI only by the theme change (if it wasn't hardcoded). So, you need to write your own UI theme for OBS. Best examples of the past were here:
