Oh, and, by default, you can change all themes but the Shell theme. To enable Shell theme selection:

1. guix install gnome-shell-extensions
2. Open GNOME Tweaks
3. Go to "Extensions" and turn on "User themes".
4. Restart GNOME Tweaks (I had to)
5. Go to "Appearance" and select the Shell theme you want.
