    Well, this seems in line with their whole Material 3 crapfest. I have a small personal SPA based on Angular Material 2. I’ve chosen some nice colours and use them troughout the site for a recognizable style.

    With Material 3 you can pick a colour, or if you ask very nicely, maybe 5. And then the framework will generate the colours for the components. These generated colours are almost, but not quite, entirely unlike the colours you picked. Making your site look like an fugly mess.

    Their grand “vision” is that they should match the content or whatever wallpaper the user has. So fuck you and your colours, we know better. It was quite a frustrating experiment and for now I’m back on Material 2 looking to switch to something better.

      I liked the idea of Material 3 until they made it basically impossible to choose your own colours. What’s worse, power users found a way to do it and they patched it
