Release - 1.0 Themes As you would expect, it has all the obvious theming features of Gnome Tweaks minus the fonts part. You can change the GTK Theme, change icons and more. What Tweaks does not support as of now is GTK 4 theming and this is where Evolve starts to make a difference. Evolve provides you not only with complete GTK 4 support but also Global Themes which take care of everything starting from applying gtk-3.0 theme, gnome-shell theme and even gtk-4.0 theme. Applying a Global Theme app

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

    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)
