+> **Heads-up on B and C:** Vesktop loads themes (files *and* online links) via `@import`, which has a cold-start race — once in a while it silently fails to inject on launch and you'll see window transparency but no frost on the surfaces. If that happens, toggle the theme off/on in Settings → Themes (re-injects instantly). **Option A (QuickCSS) sidesteps this entirely** — use it if you want set-and-forget.
