@doctormo @thomholwerda Right, I didn't mean to come off as snarky, it was a genuine question more aimed at the earlier post that "theming is accessibility", but I have the sense that iOS is not themable but also is very accessible. I'm wondering if that impression is wrong, or if there are different paths to accessibility?
@doctormo @thomholwerda Would you consider iOS themeable?
Severe weather in the area recently, and my OnePlus 6T phone running #postmarketos received the cell broadcast alert! Certainly many to thank for this feature being available on #mobilelinux, including @phosh @postmarketOS and many more I don't even know. #phosh #duranium
