### Something doesn't work on Ubuntu
Unfortunately, Ubuntu ships heavily modified GNOME components to implement some features like accent colors. Because they did so in a very hacky way instead of working with upstream and other desktop projects on a proper solution, it results in a broken out of the box experience with the extension, which expects a standard environment. Not much can be done as I don't want to code workarounds on top of hacks.
Unfortunately, Ubuntu ships heavily modified GNOME components to implement some of its features, like accent colors. Because it does so in a very hacky way instead of working with upstream and other desktop projects on a proper solution, it conflicts with anything that deals with the color scheme and themes, and results in a broken experience with the extension.
To mitigate that, please:
- Enable GTK theme switching in the extension preferences and choose the themes with your desired accent color
- Enable Shell theme switching in the extension preferences and choose the themes with your desired accent color
You'll have to do that again whenever you want to change your accent color.
If after following these steps, something still isn't working, please open a new issue.
As the issue is in Ubuntu, and because I don't have the energy nor the will to work around the consequences of their decisions, unfortunately Ubuntu is not supported until it provides a standard GNOME environment.
### Switching happens too early/too late
