That’s wild, flat out telling the community they’re going to refuse to implement something if they want it enough to ask for it
I won’t presume how easy or hard implementing that would be, but I have a hard time believing it would be so significant that this stance makes any sense at all
The reasoning for only allowing predefined colors was that, apparently, developers need to be able to test against every color and that Android’s Material You is a total mess. I disagree with both of that, Material You seems to be working quite fine (I’ve also made apps myself) and I don’t get what developers would need to test with accent colors. I couldn’t voice my opinion tho cause then the whole thing would’ve been canned.
Android’s Material You is absolutely disgusting though with it’s bizarre theming choices and piss-like pastels and fucked notification shade and the dark mode circle jerk and it frankly seems to be an attempt to assassinate material design and everything that made it a defining tech aesthetic of the late 2010s
Okay? Did I say anything about that being owed? They’re also not owed a community using their community project, so acting like that just makes no sense and seems counter to a goal of building or maintaining an active community of users
I didn’t say they aren’t allowed to do that so maybe go have that argument with someone who did.
