Closed source ?
What's the meaning ?
Closed source means that the code is not available to the public, so many people are afraid of installing Themely because they think there's some kind of malware or stuff hidden inside its Source Code
Yes, it's very similar to Anemone but people don't trust nor Themely nor Erman, and that's why everyone was waiting for an alternative

Great being able to add themes by QR code. But unfortunately theme shuffle causes the bgm to not loop.
This is a known issue and also occurs with themely - if you can find a set of 10 themes that loop with themely and don't loop with Anemone I can probably fix it. Otherwise, I do the exact same thing Erman does for installing shuffle.

weird, the qr code download is not working for me, i scan the qr, the screen says downloading but when it finishes and it goes back to the app the themes is not there it wasn't downloaded, and it even crashed once
Can you send the dump?

Somebody should try to install that theme with Themely, just to see if anything changes
Edit: I've tried a lot of themes from https://3dsthem.es/ and all went well, except for another sonic theme made by the same guy
Seems to be an issue with those specific themes then.

IT'S SAFE, STOP WORRYING
To me, the question was never about whether it was safe - I believe very strongly in open source homebrew, as the whole point is homebrew is to break out of the restrictions of Nintendo's software. Closed source homebrew is entirely counter to this purpose, as it breaks you out of Nintendo's arbitrary sandbox and puts you into another one. Homebrew communities are a lot smaller than most software developer communities, so having things be open source for everyone is hugely beneficial. Being able to read code and understand how to do things helps homebrew thrive.

I think I've responded everything, let me know if there's anything else I missed.

I was scrolling 3dsthem.es for some new themes and i spotted that guy's theme again, reading the comments i found out that: 1) He has a bricked 3DS and 2) Also someone else complained about this problem saying that he Soft-Bricked his 3DS
Is that even possible?

No, just clear home menu extdata and it should be fixed.

I was thinking: it is possible to permanently brick a 3DS with a theme?
No, it's not. All theme data is stored on the SD card.

It doesn't use DSP at all actually, not sure what you're trying to do that's having an issue.

No, theme data is stored to the SD card, the worst thing that can happen is home menu not showing up. In that case, turning on your 3DS without the SD card and changing the theme or deleting home menu extdata will fix

I've been pretty busy with school and have had nowhere near the time I wanted to work on it, however the plan is for a pretty big update to be coming out soon.

You can see on the trello (link in OP) what I'm planning for the next release, and farther out in the future.
