I would think of sugar candy with some custom backgrounds.

I already made some.

The workaround is to layer "sddm rpms", a really nice project by Lunarequest but it could make the distros stand out more.

The themes have to be tested against bugs, as these sometimes occur.

You can't modify them at all on Kinoite, so the backgrounds have to be fix.

I tried to sddm2rpm the 'Reactionary' theme, but it didn't work, so I just shoved the whole theme files into the correct folder on my image.

If yall manage to make this work, it'd be cool if it was made possible to install the rpms in any image.

Weird. sddm2rpm supports unpacking all tar archives and now also zips. It produces rpms that install to the exact same location.

First you build the rpm, then you layer the rpm

rpm-ostree update --install /path/to/theme.rpm && reboot

Then after reboot you see the theme in the sddm theme list.

The sugar-steamOS theme is now available and set as the default on the deck variant of Bazzite. For others, the steps outlined above would be best and officially supported.
