How to change the color of the highlighted user in the login-dialog-user-list in GDM? As I understand it, this can be done in Ubuntu via the following method...
# nano /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/ubuntu.css
.login-dialog-user-list {
spacing: 12px;
padding: .2em;
width: 23em; }
.login-dialog-user-list:expanded .login-dialog-user-list-item:selected {
background-color: #dd4814;
color: #ffffff; }
.login-dialog-user-list:expanded .login-dialog-user-list-item:logged-in {
border-right: 2px solid #dd4814; }
// Lime Green color #00FF00
// Orange color #dd4814
But Debian GDM3 does not use style sheets? Or it does? But the style sheets I found are related to Gnome classic? So changing them would not impact the active GDM3 process?
# cd/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme
# ls -l
total 280

Changing gnome-classic.css would only work if I was using Gnome class, right? So how can you customize the login user list colors? Sorry but the bright royal blue is just not to my liking, I would like to change it, how can I do so?

Gnome does not have shell themes enabled by default. You probably need to enable shell themes in Gnome Tweaks.
