" you can't change the fonts, you can't change the accent colors to anything else than the bland 4 colors that are provided by Google. "

This makes MS windows 1.0 look advanced. 1 GHz processor with 4 GB RAM and they are not able to include a font and color selector. And now MS is copying them.

I never understood the lack of ability to select from the color palette. I saw it in way too many places. Why would you not just allow me to fucking pick any color I would like?

You can see this kind of trend in software that has to do with organization of whatever. You can pick between like 8 colors for your folders, for example, or labels. Like... is it too hard, or what is the reasoning? Laziness?
