**Category:** new-feature **User Impact:** Users can keep a distinct Appearance scheme for each community and restore it on another desktop signed in with the same identity. **Problem:** A single global theme makes it harder to distinguish among communities, and local-only preferences do not follow a user to another device. **Solution:** Save each community's stable theme, accent, and system-following selection as private encrypted relay state, backed by a responsive local cache and guarded against switch races, invalid future records, and relay failures. <details> <summary>File changes</summary> **desktop/src/app/App.tsx** Mounts the community-scoped theme controller inside the active community lifecycle. **desktop/src/features/settings/lib/appearanceScopeCopy.test.mjs** Covers active-community and fallback labels used to explain Appearance scope. **desktop/src/features/settings/lib/appearanceScopeCopy.ts** Builds a safe, trimmed label for the currently active community. **desktop/src/features/settings/ui/SettingsPanels.tsx** Clarifies which Appearance controls are per-community and which apply globally when multiple communities exist. **desktop/src/shared/constants/kinds.ts** Defines the NIP-78 application-data event kind used for theme preferences. **desktop/src/shared/theme/CommunityThemeController.tsx** Coordinates cached appearance, encrypted relay retrieval, live updates, reconnect behavior, and safe community switching. **desktop/src/shared/theme/ThemeProvider.tsx** Exposes a single appearance application path so synchronized preferences use the existing renderer and persistence behavior. **desktop/src/shared/theme/communityThemePreference.test.mjs** Covers contract validation, user/relay isolation, malformed records, cache failures, and switch-race decisions. **desktop/src/shared/theme/communityThemePreference.ts** Defines the versioned stable preference contract, safe defaults, local cache keys, and persistence guards. **desktop/src/shared/theme/communityThemeSync.test.mjs** Covers relay absence, unreadable records, unavailability, seeding safety, and teardown of pending writes. **desktop/src/shared/theme/communityThemeSync.ts** Encrypts theme preferences to the user, publishes and retrieves NIP-78 state, and handles ordering and lifecycle safety. </details> ### Reproduction steps 1. Join at least two communities and open **Settings → Appearance**. 2. Choose a different theme, accent, or system-following mode in each community. 3. Switch between the communities and verify each one restores its own scheme without overwriting the other. 4. Sign in on another desktop with the same Nostr identity, join the same community, and verify its saved scheme is restored from that community's relay. 5. Disconnect the relay, change Appearance, and verify the UI remains responsive and the local fallback is retained. ### Screenshots / demos <img width="1733" height="948" alt="image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5afeabaa-0def-482c-9b87-8a880ee0a467" /> <img width="700" height="412" alt="Screen Recording 2026-07-29 at 4 39 52 PM" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/d58da329-aec5-4324-a4b2-cbcb2702a81a" /> --------- Signed-off-by: Taylor Ho <taylorkmho@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: npub1223z34hd7vtwc6qj4s7flsxkj644nlre2nthu7lrrmkumhu3xddsrx9r6w <52a228d6edf316ec6812ac3c9fc0d696ab59fc7954d77e7be31eedcddf91335b@buzz.block.builderlab.xyz> Co-authored-by: npub1223z34hd7vtwc6qj4s7flsxkj644nlre2nthu7lrrmkumhu3xddsrx9r6w <52a228d6edf316ec6812ac3c9fc0d696ab59fc7954d77e7be31eedcddf91335b@buzz.block.builderlab.xyz>
