Support themes from the Chrome Web Store - Discussion
Just my two cents: personally not a great fan of theming (in my experience it always looks messy in Chrome, doesn't really add much). As for transparency: more a distracting gimmick than functional (particularly in an app in which you spent so much production time as your main web browser).

elmarj Does this mean that you are fine with using the default visuals for light/dark themes? Or that you would prefer some other ways of personalizing your browser outside of Chrome themes or transparency?
IrinaL Hi Irina! I am definitely happy with the dark-mode theme! Indeed: for me personally (and to be honest, I guess for most users I know) chrome-style browser themes don't add use value. The few times I went to the Chrome Store to pick a custom theme, it took a lot of time to find anything decent-looking and it was never an improvement over the much more polished "stock" theme. BTW: if anything, I could see how expanding the current set of two themes (dark / light) with one or two extra well designed color themes would be a nice touch.
Same for me, Chrome web store themes visually limit me in recognizing the texts in the tab and other parts of the browser.
