How do you make this a selectable theme in Lemmy-ui settings?
Unfortunately you can't; it would need to be implemented by the owner of the instance to make it selectable there, but these themes have been built to work with the default litely theme on any Lemmy instance, all you need is a browser plugin/extension that can inject custom CSS in order to use these themes.
If you manage to create a polished theme we can have a look at integrating it. It's not that hard technically: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/theming.html

I would be so hyped if my theme made it official!
I'll see what I can do; the changes I've made can definitely use some tweaking. What would be the best way of checking in once I have something to demo? Should I DM you directly, or is there perhaps a way to contact the admins that you'd prefer I use?
You could create a post on !support@beehaw.org, we'll probably see it. If we don't reply within a day, just ping me directly on here or Matrix (linked in profile). I can't promise anything though as I'm not the only one deciding on this, but as a non-default theme we can most likely integrate it after your tweaks.
