The long game is paying off: more and more cross-platform apps are getting FreeDesktop dark style support for free. 💪
Recently I’ve noticed Signal and Slack both respect the Dark Style preference in GNOME, which should mean it works across elementary OS, KDE, and other FreeDesktop environments as well. This is thanks to having it standardized under FD.o and then getting it into Chromium, and thus Electron.
If we want more apps to “Just Work” on Linux, this is the sort of work we have to do!
