 officialhax | was able to set custom theme with nwg-look after that | 13:45:39 |

 daudix | YAY | 14:12:41 |
| officialhax | removed the .config/gtkX folders millions of times, but guess i had to set Adwita first for swap themes with NWG | 14:19:49 |
| daudix | GTK theming can be tedious at times | 15:16:47 |

| daudix | Today (18th) is Gradience's second birthday 🎉
Since it was recently archived, I thought I'd write a post about its history and why it was archived: https://daudix.one/blog/archiving-gradience | 00:41:07 |
| daudix | Let me know if I forgot to add some important lore piece (I'm sure I did) | 01:24:37 |

| cdunku | One question, is gradience discontinued? Since I get an error when trying to update my flatpaks:
Info: runtime org.gnome.Platform branch 44 is end-of-life, with reason:
The GNOME 44 runtime is no longer supported as of March 20, 2024. Please ask your application developer to migrate to a supported platform.
Info: applications using this runtime:
com.github.GradienceTeam.Gradience
| 18:19:12 |
 pixl_xip | gradience has not been updated for many months. it has not been updated to stop using the out-of-date GNOME 44 runtime | 18:20:40 |
| pixl_xip | so launching gives a warning for using an out-of-date runtime | 18:21:03 |
| cdunku changed their profile picture. | 18:22:22 |

| t-dantiau | Hello, I'm Torben. I was using Gradience since the reddit post, and I was sad when I learned of the disappearance of its maintainer, that's why I wanted to create my version of Gradience. I started by creating a library and a CLI that reproduces the Gradience functionalities (it has GTK3/4 theming, Shell theming, preset management, missing monet), and I will soon create the GTK application. I wanted to know if anyone was interested in creating the GTK application with me! | 12:31:09 |

| pixl_xip | Hi, @t-dantiau ! As discussed earlier in this conversation and in a previous blogpost, there's already a planned Rust rewrite (or inspired application) of Gradience which is in the works by some former project members! Should we all discuss that together? I can invite you to the development room. Though, we'd want to change the format of files and how things work, so it wouldn't be entirely retro-compatible, nor would it be compatible with the previously mentioned library. Same for anyone interested (like @theotherhive!) | 17:22:23 |

| t-dantiau | I changed a bit the format of presets and made it more versatile, in my software, a single preset can contain an entire theme and all of its variations: light/dark and accent colors, a variable can either be set as same for each variation or can be customized depending of the variation... | 19:21:27 |
| pixl_xip | that seems neat | 19:21:51 |
| pixl_xip | and are you using json presets? | 19:22:03 |
| t-dantiau | yeap | 19:22:19 |
| t-dantiau | but i can also support toml and yaml by adding a few lines of code | 19:22:34 |
| pixl_xip | ok | 19:23:02 |
| pixl_xip | ill add you to the room for my project (Chameleon) | 19:23:25 |
| pixl_xip | * i'll add you to the room for my project (Chameleon) | 19:23:32 |
