I just accidentally clicked the “clear all” on the browser URL and wished that it was a bit harder to click but was still there. If it took three clicks to make happen, its still useful in most circumstances but would drastically drop the mistaken clicks

Anyway, what are your unpopular UI opinions?

    I can see why this opinion would be unpopular

    The reason that it’s unpopular is that it’s hard enough to design a nice app and when you add theming it gets way harder. I still think it should be supported, but I can see why it isn’t.

      I thin it should be like this: the system defines something like 10-15 main colors (text, text background, foreground, main accent, highlight bright, highlight dark …). All programs are designed in terms of those colors. Designers don’t put “green here, black there” but “main color here, highlight there”.

      But they also have the option to recommend the user a app specific color set that can either be applied to that app only or system wide.

      By default every app uses their own recommended theme unless the user has set the option to override app themes with the system theme.
