Third-party GNOME/Adwaita app developers: if there was a simple way to opt into some more expressive kind of user-chosen theming (think: more like Material You with Adwaita and less like whole GTK stylesheets), would you be interested in opting your app into it?

Why or why not?

Feel free to boost widely! Not a poll because raw numbers are not as interesting as the discussion to me. 😊

I would only do it if there was a merit to accessibility. When you look at theming solutions like Material You, they tend to be really low on contrast. (Frankly, this is one of my complaints about libadwaita.)

@TheEvilSkeleton I agree with this sentiment. Tangible benefits, like purposeful controls for addressing ADHD/Autism/etc, would go a long way to justifying any increased maintenance.
