Why havent the linux community yet in 2017 invented a simple tool for chosing color schemes for your system?
>>
>>58584947
It's called Unity/Gnome tweak tool. I believe KDE has this by default.
>>
>>58584947
because they're too busy trying to fix X
>>
>>58584956
Those doesnt let you change colors
>>
>>58584947
A tool that only has sliders and doesn't show you the numerical values is awful.
>>
>>58584986
At least windows lets me choose the damn colors
>>
>>58584961
why are you stuttering?
>>
>>58584970
Yes, they do. Literally the first page in appearance.
>>
Gnome works using CSS, so you not only can change the colors, you can style the whole damn thing any way you want, including using SVG icons for menus and such.

Can't do that on windows.
>>
>>58584999
That only lets you select themes, no color picker to be found
>>
>>58585015
>literally using web tech for an OS
Top kek, what's next? Rewriting the kernel in html5?
>>
>>58584947
Honestly though, why hasn't someone made a GTK-engine that would be truly minimal (no hacks and workarounds in the engine) and it would allow you to customize it with simple sliders like that (accent color, windows border, spacing, etc)
>>
>>58585023
It's not CSS3, it just the same format with a sane subset for things like padding and stuff.

>a config file that uses a common standardized format
>what will they do next, not spy on you?
>>
>>58585029
because the gtk devs would just break compatibility every 2 weeks
>>
>>58585015
>CSS
That's fucking overkill
CSS was a mistake
>>
Good thing linux doesn't, because windows looks like trash
