From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

That's bs. No matter how good your theming system is, it can't fix a bunch of things. Even something as basic as text being shown against a background with not enough contrast.
Theming has been known to cause issues on literally every DE. You can't stop people from theming poorly, or ban bugs, they're both just part of the landscape of downloading random themes and applying it to all your apps.
And random dev shouldn't be on the hook for third party themes that cause issues. Nor should they be expected to drop everything and investigate bugs in somebody else's theme project. That stuff should be reported to the theme developer.
Most Linux app devs are volunteers and their time shouldn't be wasted investigating theming-related issues. Report it to the theme developer.
