I see the same.  It's an annoyance but not an urgent problem, so I
think most contributors spend time on higher-priority issues.

What theme are you using?  'nimbus'?  If not, we'll need to know what
theme you're using that triggers the issue.

If you are using nimbus, does the issue go away if you modify

 	/usr/share/themes/nimbus/gtk-3.0/gtk-widgets.css

and comment out or delete the

 	-GtkRange-slider-width: 13;

?  You'll want to save a copy of the original file, and put the original
back in place when you're done testing.

If that fixes the issue & you report back, I'll put in a pull request (PR)
with a fix.

I've found some minimal information on theme property changes on
docs.gtk.org, but I've never found a good document on modernizing
properties in themes. There may be other themes that need a little cleanup
or modernization.
