--- Comment #5 from Mikhail Zolotukhin <zom...@protonmail.com> --- (In reply to Frederick Zhang from comment #4) > some GTK applications become straight appalling, > e.g. Firefox and (especially) Thunderbird. It's a problem of those applications, that they fail to correctly use dark theme from GTK. It should be reported to them (if not already) and fixed. Alternatively a workaround with setting `GTK_THEME=theme_name` variable can be applied. > IMHO we should leave this choice to users and provide as much flexibility as > possible simply because a lot of GTK applications cannot fit well in the Qt > ecosystem and there's no way for us to force this down their throats. KDE current goal is consistency and reasonable amount of customization, not just simply "more features for features". Selecting different colors for applications based on what framework it's based is an unreasonable feature. (In perfect world of course, where there are no buggy applications, that fail to apply GTK theme colors) > merging the options sounds like an even worse idea to me as I guess it'd > probably be tricky to handle third-party themes and what to do with themes > that haven't got an dark/light variant is also a problem. I mean, that themes with "-dark" suffix could be hidden within the combobox of possible GTK themes selections. They will be still present as the themes. The themes, that has no dark/light variants will not be touched. Nevertheless, if people do not agree with this change, I will not make it. I just do not know what else can be done on our side. Perhaps only removing syncing the `gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme` parameter in the configs for GTK applications depending on color scheme you selected. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
