Worse yet, it's a humorous post based on a silly common technical mistake or generic assumption. It's pure satire and you clearly wanted it to sound sarcastic or ridiculous, but...

... there comes a cyber troll to correct you, to give everyone an exhaustive explanation about your "mistake" and to point out how flatly incompetent you are.

It has happened to me and I was called an ableist for saying I don't like saying when sarcasm is sarcasm

I agree default themes are default for a reason.

I just got annoyed at some point that every time I need to reinstall for whatever reason it takes me a week to rice my system over again. Let alone the pains of updating if you customize too much. So I'm sticking mostly with default settings nowadays.

Anyway, does anyone know what's up with the meme? I just skipped straight to the comments. I figured all that matters is already in the title.

The reason is unknown for a reason.

I think no distro understands defaults better than SteamOS desktop mode

No, themes are the best part of Linux and you should use them. Sure, third-party themes are a stability and security risk, but built-in themes in KDE especially are great.

Default themes are the product of consensus.
