 I've been using Gradience to tint the backdrop of GNOME's "Activities" view and boy does it look gorgeous! A little color goes a long way.

 @6501cbc9 I'm curious, what's the appeal of using third party icon themes these days?
Back in the old days there were some decent quality themes that provided consistent alternatives for low quality icons, but nowadays most apps ship with pretty great icons to begin with. Whenever I see themes now their icons are just worse recreations of an already consistent set.

 @6501cbc9 yeah I like this a lot more than blur. It feels more cohesive yet is less busy.
