> As for themes, I quite like the new libadwaita theme, and prefer it to the default GTK theme. You're free to disagree, but you can't say your opinion is correct, nor can I.

I agree... but the gnome devs are directly telling me my opinion is incorrect, by removing the ability for me to change my apps i use to a theme I like.

Oh wait sorry, i guess i should have said gnome's apps.

This is an unfortunately very common misconception: you can still set GTK_THEME on libadwaita apps, it's only the gsettings configuration that doesn't work (due to implementation constraints, unfortunately).

I've tried that, and besides it being a highly inconvenient workaround, it doesn't work on any of my machines.

That's...strange, I just had it successfully tested yesterday. Are you actually testing with a GTK4-compatible theme?

You have to admit that is more work though, and devs on a limited size team like the gnome developers have to draw the line at some point.
