What are the reasons for the 8+ downvotes? Wondering what they’re clicking as the reasons.

How can people downvote a free theme? Seems concerning.

Mostly "bad product or service" with a couple of "other".

They disagree politically and let that consume all thought.

It's not the prettiest theme by any stretch...but for some, it might be a 'teachable moment' for your kids, etc. (I am an educator, it's in my DNA.)

Are there any PS5 themes? I would think they would have to be 4k so you can't use PS4 themes on a PS5?

I remember it took a while for the PS4 to get themes if I'm not mistaken. I wonder if we'll have them for the PS5 right out of the gate. I do like how quick the UI looks from the preview videos. Don't think I'd spend much time looking at a theme anyway.

Almost anything you see on social media regarding politics is pure propaganda, but thats all I want to say about that. I think the theme is fine, but could have used a bit more effort.
I feel like they could have sold the theme for $0.99 and given all the profits to Organization X.

I don't mind it. The black and yellow has Lakers-ish vibes, but I won't be using it.

Doesn't matter if it's a BLM theme, Pride theme, or International Women's Day theme, the thread plays out the exact same way in terms of downvotes and multi-page arguments over what is really just a "download or don't download" decision.

What does this theme do to support BLM?

This seems more like a ploy to profit from the movement in terms of good will as opposed to actual change.

Like all major corporations they have something. This may be very late but its here. If you want to show it for one day or 100 days that's up to you. The fact that its been downvoted this many times isn't really a reflection on RFD (which it may, i am not to say) but more how naive everyone can be to their neighbors or someone else who appears to be all for equality.
