As far as i'm aware there is no way to make theming work inside of the official version due to it being a container like install right? (no way to export the theme into a location it can be used right?)
Currently trying to decide between having the newest version vs having it look like the rest of the system, so just wanted to see if it was even possible to go back without there being any issues first :P

You could also consider using a rolling-release distro which provides working, recent packages.
Pop OS seems to be based on Ubuntu, which means the calibre install will be fraught with risk as it usually is, due to the abundance of questionable patches which Debian uses. I rarely check what they are doing, but I think every time I did, I discovered something that they were breaking due to their patches.
