Making a breeze scale system icon theme, want to reach as many people as I can (lemmy.world)

So for the better part of the month I’ve been nose glued to my laptab working a custom icon set. It started as just some custom folders… but ended up becoming me redoing the entire breeze theme. I’m talking thousands of icons.

I based the theme on the google material design as I haven’t seen a proper full system theming for that, and for accessibility reasons alone I think it needs to exist… but I mainly wanted to do it like that so I can have EVERYTHING change with the system accent colour.

So after likely over a hundred (hundreds of?) hours, I’m reaching the finish line.

Anyway for selfish and selfless reasons I want to be able to have my theme reach as many people as possible. Some people in my life have suggested I contact some Linux news sites, but that feels a bit much, I don’t know. Any ideas?

Oh yah it’s free of course.

KDE’s site has a library of custom icon themes iirc, that would be a good place to start getting people to see it. If you wanted to post some examples of your theme here that’d also be cool imo, lemmy is full of Linux users and if your pics are compelling I could see it getting a good amount of attention. Good luck!
