We are mentioned in a popular youtube channel’s new video =D

Hey, I think I fixed the gtk2/electron app issues not being properly themed in the snap. Would anyone try the instructions on https://github.com/ubuntu/communitheme-snap-helpers/pull/8#issuecomment-384179997, then logout/log back in and report the results? Thanks!
It works for me, thank’s!
And here we go with our last interview today, from @godlyranchdressing! https://didrocks.fr/2018/04/25/welcome-to-the-ubuntu-bionic-age-behind-communitheme-interviewing-aaron/
Thanks to everyone who participated in this fun little exercise
And thanks to you @didrocks for an excellent opportunity to get to know the people we write with every day
@d0od says of the Communitheme ‘it’s dark, it’s delicious, and it’s arguably the best that Ubuntu has ever looked’. Well done guys!
Thanks - but we are still not done yet!
It’s great that he promotes this!
With @didrocks and the rest of the team, we decided to schedule a new snap stable release per week.
Since this is one of the most active threads where users can provide feedback, I feel it is the right thing to announce here first that edge channel has just been promoted to stable!
There are several improvements we are happy about, hope you like it as well
Hi,
Thanks a lot for the very great you’ve done!!!
On an 18.04 with the edge version of the theme, it is difficult to see the highlighting of the menu. I feel that the display is too bright on the mouse hover with some software like firefox for exemple
(sorry for my poor english)
Current approach with the transparencies is very interesting - in a good way!
I quite like having the same transparency for the launcher and the top bar. But I wonder if you might as well get rid of the separating line in that case, so they form a single r-shaped panel. Personally, I think this looks a little bit better:
Also, if we’re going with dark menu titles, which visually “joins” them to the window’s title bar IMO - rather than making them feel like part of the app’s own interface - I think it looks better if you simply fuse them with the title bar without a separator, like so:
Keep up the good work!
Agree, but this is a problem in Mutter that we cannot fix in communitheme
Uhm, not sure this is due to communitheme. Was this a fresh install of 18.04?
No I have updated from 16.04.
May be you are right, because it is working fine in my personal laptop (freshly installed 18.04).
By the way is there any fix for this?
“Agree, but this is a problem in Mutter that we cannot fix in communitheme”
Ah, of course. Then I probably cycle back to my preference for lighter menu titles, which I think I suggested up there somewhere. Otherwise, two dark stripes with a darker separator, as per current setup, just feels a bit dense and gloomy to me.
Dark is normally good but if it’s hard to do dark menus well at this time it might be flogging a dead horse.
We discussed your proposal here, unfortunately it didn’t make it
I still hope to propose a change in mutter
@dibyendu.roy1988 thank you for reporting it. We’ve already contacted the right team that is working on it, see here
Ah, I didn’t realise that - thank you for considering it
Some fun to enjoy the work that has been made
World of Gnome (very popular gnome youtube channel) is promoting our theme (now that we are on flathub):
