Beautiful theme, love it!
by Luis, 2025-03-07

The change of theme colours from black with white text which has also affected some prog's such as 'X' is not only a strain on the eyes (like when in a brightly sunlit room) but it also makes text difficult to read or even see in some instances (such as 'X'). Personally I HATE IT and will consider changing to a different OS when I can afford to renew my laptop. I don't understand why this says it is a review for DARK THEME? I am referring to changes imposed on (or between) 28-30th June 2024 when all menus changed from black to white b/ground. I think considering the costs involved with buying, owning & setting such things as default colours should be the choice of the owner/user and NOT imposed.
