It doesn’t do that. My color theme changes dynamically with my background. But even manual changes don’t require that. Did you enable polkit in the control center? Are you running Noctalia 5 or newer?
Only when I want to update my greeter theme alongside everything else, I get polkit requests asking for my password. But I also got noctalia-greeter after having had installed another greeter. So maybe that messed it up. Anyway, you can disable auto theme update for the greeter. Or use a different greeter.
I’m sure there are problems still, but it only just got implemented last month (Noctalia greeter is also super new). I think we can expect fixes. Maybe your particular issue has already been fixed. For some tools I’m using I’m getting daily updates by now, so last month is like ages ago in terms of updates. Not necessarily true for Noctalia, though.
I did like Mint Cinnamon, as well. Pop!_OS I haven’t tried yet. I might hop a little on my second machine. But for now I’m happy with my heavily customized Noctalia setup on my main machine. What else did you find to be messed up?
I can only tell you that I’m using CachyOS (Arch) with Wayland and the latest Noctalia, which is extremely customizable. I’m very content. My compositor is Hyprland, but Niri or Mango work, too. Noctalia even technically works with KDE, which I also used for quite some time, but I wouldn’t recommend using it on top of it. Noctalia (Hyprland) has been a standard installation option in the CachyOS .iso ever since August 2026.

Games@lemmy.world•Why do some translations abbreviate words for UI localization within a game?English
9·3 months agoSpace.
Sometimes one string is used in multiple locations. The full word might fit in one location but not in another so you abbreviate it and the abbreviation appears in both locations.
What concrete examples are you referring to? Japanese is likely rarely abbreviated.

GTA 6 will hit PC approximately 2 days after console release because someone is going to decompile it with their agent and run it natively. Actually, a tool to run PS5 games natively on Linux and Windows already exists, though it likely won’t work for GTA 6 (yet).
