Is there a way to add a dark theme to Deepin? I have to use my computer all day and all the white backgrounds really hurt my eyes. I'm looking foir a theme that works with Deepin to turn all the white backgrounds to dark grey or black. Also, any instructions on how to install it would be great!

it's not so hard, just extract archive of the theme to /usr/share/themes and relog

Nope, that doesn't do anything. I've used linux for years so I know how to change themes. But the reason I'm asking is that the regular way is not working for me.

Or just go your home folder, hit ctrl + h -key and copy extracted theme folders to .theme (hidden folder). Then relog.
