Help, I'm just starting out using manjaro with kde. I have this beautiful pink color scheme, and fitting themes for it. Anyway, in firefox, there is this green accent color in different places. From what I could find on google, it's due to manjaro. Supposedly it's from my Gnome theme, but I don't know how to change the colors on it. How can I make my firefox accent color pink?

I’ve recently installed manjaro plasma KDE alongside my windows. I was hoping to give it cleaner look, but I’ve been having some issues with pywal. It doesn’t really seem to generate the right colorscheme for my background? Could anybody help me out? Thanks!

What's a good window manager that really expresses Unix? This is very open ended, i'm looking to install something that follows Unix guidelines etc but also looks pretty

Consider dwm or bspwm.

Especially bspwm for the Unix philosophy of "Do one thing and do it well". bspwm is simply a window manager, another program would take care of short cuts sxhkd usually in general.

All of the cool polybar themes I see (like the ones from u/adi1090x) use openbox or i3, are there any cool polybar themes that use xfwm? I don't know if I want to change WMs just for the status bar.

Or, are there any good/recommended taskbars that work well with xfwm?

It doesn't matter what wm you use, my themes have i3 or openbox, because i use these two wm's and never tried xfwm. If you want to use these themes, feel free to use, these will work on any wm/de. Just replace i3 modules with workspace module. And that's it.

Gotcha. Where/which files do I make that replacement?

Most of the features in polybar are universal, there's nothing stoping you from using it wish xfwm.

The ones with i3 are only a workspace indicator and switcher, the other components are not related to the desktop environment.

Does anyone know of a dark XFCE style similar to Materia Dark Compact, but with better coverage of UI issues? For example, Chrome password/profile suggestion boxes are practically unreadable, with dark text on a dark background. Lazarus IDE also displays some really difficult combinations like dark red text on dark gray. Thanks for any tips!
