I'd like to propose (not to anyone, guys, I'm straight), that despite the fact
that we are sworn to promote a pure GNOME desktop experience, I believe it's
not a violation of that rule if we, by default, with the next cycle start to
include also nice shell theme(s) of our choice giving our users a variety to
start with, which would directly follow the philosophy of a beautiful and
functional operating system working out of the box; if they do not like the
default GNOME shell theme (which is btw the first thing most users change).
With that we can guarantee:
-
stability and functionality
-
provide a soothing desktop experience
Additionally we would make formal contact with the developer of that particular
theme and ask for future cooperation as quality insurance and also motivate the
developer to maintain their theme for future releases/propose modification
suggestions.
My proposal would be the fantastically looking Zukitwo GNOME shell theme in
both a light and dark variant that I am using and can't praise enough.
I will not post screenshots, as they are unnecessary and more convincing is to
try the theme out yourselves. You will not regret it. For me Zukitwo provides
the smoothest GNOME shell look.
Nothing ruins creativity like too many voices weighing in. We call it the Ice
Cream Principle. Tell 10 people to go get ice cream with one condition: they
all have to agree on one flavour. That flavour is going to be chocolate or
vanilla every time. Groups of people don't agree on what's cool or interesting,
they agree on what's easy to agree on.
