I’m all of the above (gay, bi, trans, gnome)

    As an unequivocally straight person, my view is:

    What the fuck does what somebody else’s sexual thing (orientation, identification, desires…) matter to me? As long as it doesn’t harm me I’m good. Your freedom stops when it encroaches on mine. And that is bi-directional. If I have a problem with that, it’s MY problem to deal with.

      This could open a can of worms if you talk to somebody outside of the liberal bubble, no matter how obvious it seems. Right wingers can literally feel it’s harmful as they believe it can affect their children sexuality or cause degeneration when non-normative relationships are being showed publicly. others believe it would be ok, but strongly oppose LGBT activism, which to be honest in parts I oppose too while being gay myself

    Irony. In GTK4 there literally are only two genders: Dark Mode and Light Mode.

    Earlier GNOME was much more accepting of alternative window styles.

      GTK4 accepts just as many aternative styles as before, you are mixing up GTK4 and members of the GNOME team. The anti-theme drama happened when some GNOME devs (and a bunch of other libadwaita users) made an open letter that asked that people do not distribute their apps with a preinstalled theme. The first versions of the letter were lunatic, sure, but it is just a request. ZorinOS ignores that request and they’re doing just fine.

      If you put a theme in ~/.config/gtk4/gtk.css, most apps will load it. Note that libadwaita, the widget kit used by GNOME and a lot of other GTK4 apps (but not all of them), no longer considers that changing a CSS class is a breaking change. For this reason, your theme may break when libadwaita updates. Which is a reasonable thing.

      Also you need to restart the app for the theme to apply, which wasn’t the case before.

      Sorry for the rant, this one annoys me because all the specialized medias fell for it. It’s a case of a very easily demonstrable fact that gets drowned in stupid Twitter/Phoronix drama.

      https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1598493 this a well known theme for libadwaita. I don’t know if there are others, I would guess so.

      https://www.gnome-look.org/browse?cat=135&ord=latest and here are a ton of themes for non-libadwaita GTK4 apps. They might break libadwaita apps, I haven’t tried any.

      And now my computer is all pink and yellow again because I made a theme to reassure myself that I wasn’t insane. I do that every few years to make sure I’m not delusional and everyone online is wrong but me.

        Do mine eyes deceive me? Some of those don’t even have the address bar merged with the menu bar and hamburger menu icon… although I can’t tell whether those are just the apps insisting on doing things the tried and tested way.

        Nonetheless, I’ll add a note to my original comment.

          Themes cannot cleanly move widgets out of their parents, I would assume it’s how the apps are designed

      It’s not right to fight the mentally deficient. And your weird obsession isn’t hurting anyone other than yourself. Just don’t be whipping your UI out in public or in front of minors and you’ll be fine.

    98% of the time I wanted to do something, or had a problem I wanted to fix, the cause was Gnome. I hate Gnome. And coincidentally also feet.

      Just discovered that thing myself a couple of days ago, after getting disappointed from Hyprland’s handling of multi-monitor setups.

    I work with a bunch of huge trumpers, two of whom are (married even) lesbians. They both have somehow arrived at the mental state where they think Republicans are pro-gay and Democrats are anti-gay. If you’re expecting these people to see reason, you’re going to be disappointed.

        They are extremely open lesbians. I just do not get it.

        I actually sort of get it: they really hate black people and I guess that trumps all. Pun intended.
