From Checkpoint's latest release "Notice: You mustn't have a flashcard inserted when launching Checkpoint, due to possible incompatibilities that could cause some threads to not end, possibly causing crashes.". I have underlined the reason.

I get that, but what more do you want in a theme selector on top of selecting the theme you want?:/ Still, I get that the guide is like the bible for CFW, but they could offer some options (eg: JKSV is still better than Checkpoint yet no mention anymore).
You can just swap the sound files between themes with a file manager just as easily though...
Why would you do that when you can do it in app with just one button? Honestly it sounds like you're really biased.
Biased how? I just don't think that if something works fine, there's no reason to replace it complete. Want alternatives? It's ok, but don't completely bury an app just because there's a similar one out there. Don't bother changing what already works basically. Also, it's not one button, more like 3+, equal to how many it would be to do what I said too. Still, not saying Anemone is bad, simply saying Themely is just as good as it needed to be and that's what matters. My issue is with how it's completely buried or talked about as if it is a terrible app that doesn't work!
I think you are looking at it solely from an end-user's point of view. The core functionality is there and if that satisfies your needs, then all the power to you. Using the example above, while it is true that you can change things using a file manager, what drawbacks does having it integrated in a theme selector have? So on top of being open source AND having nice bonuses, why would a guide writer NOT want to change?
It wasn't just because of that - Themely's developer started to act strange and was deemed untrustworthy by the guide and most members of the community, so when he announced that the newest version of his homebrew theming tool was closed source, people started being skeptical.True, but then again, most people don't care or don't have the knowledge to understand said code and you can just use an older version of Themely just fine, it's not like you need to update it to the latest ones
I guess with a story like that, it makes sense. I just have the one that was out back in March and never needed anything more than it. Who even changes themes that often anyway? I only used it to install a Bakemonogatari theme (with Shinobu's music) months back and never felt like changingIt wasn't just because of that - Themely's developer started to act strange and was deemed untrustworthy by the guide and most members of the community, so when he announced that the newest version of his homebrew theming tool was closed source, people started being skeptical.
If you want to hear what happened, long story short, afterwards it was discovered that unbanmii uploaded your 3DS's private seeds (even if it was an involuntary thing according to its developer), Erman said that it was actually, quote, "quite smart" just as he announced that the homebrew would become closed source. That, along with him distancing himself from GBATemp after being banned for using a racial slur, stopping support for his app on the github tracker as well as on other websites and obstructing users from scraping themes from his websites right after the drama (which also disabled the QR code support function), was basically the last nail in the coffin. Of course, this is a REALLY small recap of all the drama that blew up during that time, so if you want a more personal point of view I suggest you start googling to get a better picture of what happened.
Of coruse, that doesn't mean that you must stop using Themely right now - there are also open source forks that spawned right before the tool became closed source. The only unsupported and untrustworthy version out there is Erman's own for the reasons I listed above.
Anyway, I missed that it was the same dev as the unbanmii, now it makes more sense.Unbanmii's and Themely's dev are two different persons (MarcusD for the first and ErmanSayin for the latter). Howere, while MarcusD apologized for his actions and wrote a blog post explaining that it was all a big mistake, Erman said on Discord that it was a smart move to steal the private keys just while all the drama was happening. So yeah... I'll let you be the judge of that whole situation.I guess with a story like that, it makes sense. I just have the one that was out back in March and never needed anything more than it.

I see... Welp, I know about the apology and all, but now I get what the whole thing was, was missing some bits
Thanks!
Gets updated? It hasn't been updated in a long time. And I think it needs more work put into it. Feels a bit incomplete not being able to preview music.
Weird necrobump but oh well. Don't know about Anemone, but on a computer you can always easily do it manually by opening the .zip of one theme, copying the music file, then opening the .zip of the other theme and paste it in there.
