Hasn’t been released fully yet by the developer but looks interesting.

GTK4 theming with GUI?
deleted by creator
Can confirm GNOME tweaks does not do that. A note stable solution right now (only color theming though) is Gradience.
Where’s the git repo?
According to video it’s wip/coming
Glad this exists, but I am worried with the way GNOME is going that this might not be worth it in the long run.

GNOME is notorious for being against themes the way Evolve does it, mainly because themes might override default themes set by the app developers. While it does result in GNOME being more polished and coherent, some feel that it’s too limiting, especially with an ecosystem like Linux’s. It’s essentially the trade-off you get.
Libadwaita is notorious for this - libadwaita does not allow theming by default, and apps stick out like a sore thumb on anything that doesn’t run GNOME. Gradience helps match libadwaita apps to a colour scheme, and it’s what I use to make Easy Effects blend as well as possible with KDE (FWIW, Easy Effects has no KDE equivalent).

Unless you’re writing ruby on rails on a 13" macbook, you’ll run into Gnome’s limitations when working.
Gnome is in many ways so focused that it makes a lot of productivity use impossible. You always have to open the menu to launch software, you’ve got no system tray, and worst of all, Gnome apps are so simplified that you constantly run into the limitations when using it productively.
When working with dozens of windows open at the same time across multiple monitors, I’m a fan of KDE. And KDE apps tend to also have all the extra features I need to handle weird situations, files, and edge cases.

Why’d you have to use TC? KDEs dolphin can do all that natively.
Personally, configuring KDE was much simpler and more robust compared to the dozen addons I needed for Gnome, which also broke every now and then after updates.

Not right now in performance but soon it will be. I definitely think it’s the most coherent. They have a design philosophy that they follow and stick to it. I love gnome
Which way is GNOME going? I’m out of the loop.
Gnome seems to be getting better with each update, I’m not really sure what you mean? It’s stable, looks amazing/consistent, has a very healthy app ecosystem, etc.
I don’t use gnome; can someone who does plz tell me what style that is? The color scheme is Everforest, but what’s the rest of the style called? It’d look good on rofi & polybar.
Edit: I guess the theme is also Everforest Dark? I think it’s this one.
Edit 2: Someone has already done most of the work for polybar, rofi, and some other tiling WM tools; dotfiles here. I haven’t tested it myself yet, but it looks pretty good.
Think it’s from this video
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
YouTube links are fine - I hate those stupid bots that spam posts about such links.
No repo? Welp, looks like I can’t package it for Nix.

Did you read your own letter? It’s not relevant here.
If you like to tinker with your own system, that’s fine with us. However, if you change things like stylesheets and icons, you should be aware that you’re in unsupported territory. Any issues you encounter should be reported to the theme developer, not the app developer.
I don’t know whether you’re shitting on theme developers or GTK app developers with your comment, but they explicitly state that they think theming is fine, they’re just tired of people reporting theme problems as app problems. It’s a completely reasonable take.
If I were an app developer I wouldn’t want to open a bug report, then spend hours and hours investigating a reported issue, only to find out that my app was never the problem in the first place.
It’s more targeted towards the DE developers.
Some use gnome but with their own theme and it can make normal apps look broken.
You can see this if you use an Elementary OS application while still using the default gnome theme as an example.
Or if you use Pop! Shell, and try to use a normal libadwaita app. (Although Pop Shell has gotten better about how they implement their theme)

WTF
