I was reading Fedora Magazine today and there was a really interesting article up about setting the theme for plymouth[1].
I suspect that the primary reason for Charge is that it transitions more seamlessly into the GDM login screen (having similar colors). So, is there a way we could get more visual flare (and product identity) there without losing the transition benefits? Is it worth considering a re-theming of BOTH plymouth and GDM for Fedora?
It led me to wonder: why is "Charge" the default theme for Fedora Workstation instead of something with stronger branding like "Spinfinity"? In particular, I think Spinfinity would be more pleasant for people to see while performing offline updates (rather than a monochrome thought bubble) for that extended period.
I realize that this is probably going to get into an argument about the relative merits of subjective interpretations of beauty, so let me try to frame the conversation a little better:
