EDIT: v0.9 released
and a dark version
I really just put a bunch of pieces together. Forked from Reactionary Plus, but swapped out the icons, cursors, window decorations, color scheme, and made some slight tweaks to the layout.

To install this, open System Settings, go to Colors & Themes -> Global Theme. In the top right there's a button for "Get New...", wait for it to load (it's very slow) then search for reactionary, and wait again, then install Reactionary 98.
This is my first time messing with any of this stuff, it was a bit janky lol.
Dude, preferences. And not everybody uses their computer in a dark room.
It isn't any of my business whether other people use light themes... but IMHO dark themes are just so much easier on the eyes, no matter the surrounding light, that I don't get why anyone would if they have the option.
For me, light themes are easier. Especially jarring, if a website forces a dark theme on me (theres's a easy-to-use @prefers-color-scheme, use that, will ya). And syntax highlighting on dark just doesn't work for me, no matter the scheme.
Dark theme is hard to read in a brightly lit open office with sunshine. Your pupil contracts and then dark stuff become really hard to make out, especially interfaces where they have blue in black.
Thankfully my GNOME desktop has a toggle of light dark that is super accessible, and I can swap as the lighting conditions change in my office.
