From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Does GNOME really need an app to change the theme?
KDE plasma has this natively...
You can also do what this app does manually. The point is that "themes" are an hack and not officially supported, as such it doesn't make sense to provide an official interface to set them.
Do you mean for global themes, application styles or plasma styles? All application styles I can find either use Kvantum or require you to compile them manually...
Depends on what you call a theme. I was referring to color themes that can be synced with GTK apps, while the actual buttons stay the same.
Gnome 47 will have support for accent colors if that's what you want.
