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

The 50€ Patreon tier perks include "everything ad-free". And there's no repo or source available anywhere.
WTF
He's Youtuber. Patreon gives his YouTube ad free. Repo is on its way according to video.
Should be there before release. Shaaaady
Assuming it’s gpl or something, you only need to provide the source with binary distributions of the product. Anyone in the patreon would have access to the source (I’m assuming)
According to OP it hasn't been released yet.
It’s available for download. And if you want it ad free, you pay for it.
Pretty certain the ads are in his YouTube videos and not his projecf
So what’s the difference between the paid and the free download links?
I don't think there is any, he just offered an early release to his Patron supporters (he didnt put the repo up yet)
Weird, the video announcement states the software is FOSS. I think that's regarding his YouTube content and not this stuff. The video also states github is wip
GTK4 theming with GUI?
Can confirm GNOME tweaks does not do that. A note stable solution right now (only color theming though) is Gradience.
Where's the git repo?
According to video it's wip/coming
Glad this exists, but I am worried with the way GNOME is going that this might not be worth it in the long run.
Gnome seems to be getting better with each update, I'm not really sure what you mean? It's stable, looks amazing/consistent, has a very healthy app ecosystem, etc.
According to video it's wip/coming
I don't use gnome; can someone who does plz tell me what style that is? The color scheme is Everforest, but what's the rest of the style called? It'd look good on rofi & polybar.
Edit: I guess the theme is also Everforest Dark? I think it's this one.
Edit 2: Someone has already done most of the work for polybar, rofi, and some other tiling WM tools; dotfiles here. I haven't tested it myself yet, but it looks pretty good.
Think it's from this video
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
from this video
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.
YouTube links are fine - I hate those stupid bots that spam posts about such links.
lol
Did you read your own letter? It's not relevant here.
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)
