Are GTK Themes dying? (lemmy.cif.su)

I'm noticing more and more Apps actively trying to avoid Themes and instead opting for the fixed default look. Even some of the Default Gnome Apps. And then there are initiatives like Please don’t theme our apps. Is this the slow death of GTK Themes, and if yes, why?

If the workflow at a workplace requires a consistent experience across all PCs...why doesn't that workplace enforce that consistency?

I understand your frustrations, but corporate or organizational needs should not technically limit the personal needs of using a personal computer.

(And when people, used to a strict environment, are overwhelmed by the amount of freedom in their new environment, I think it's better to guide them through the options instead of just taking away everyone's freedom)
