But kde is so nice
It's windows that mimics kde plasma tho
You can make kde macOS, easy, if you really want. KDE is whatever you want it to be
I had to convince my cousin I bought him a Mac, but I didn't want to support a Mac, so I tweaked KDE to look like OSX. He thought it was great how cheap he got a laptop, and was surprised Dell made Macs now. Had him fooled for about 2 years until he asked some kid to help him do something.
I just shrugged and asked him if he'd have known if he hadn't been told. Yah, cuz knows cows, not computers.
Is this like a real anecdote? Two years… no problems no questions ?
I installed Gnome and now everything looks like macOS. Help!!!
Elementary OS 👀
Extension manager flatpak
On the contrary, if you do that, some users wouldn't even notice they switched to linux!
Or you can do a little trolling
I have MATE setup to look like OSX. Beach ball go BRRR.
I was gonna say, everyone I know and myself tweaks them to look like a Mac. 😆
Apple is really the only company that did serious research on building their initial UIs with their human interface guidelines. It’s clear they don’t anymore, and everything is about driving engagement or whatever, but like during the golden era of OS X, Tiger, their UI was far superior, and most desktop environments borrow much of that stuff to this day. I now want a hat that says “Make macOS Tiger again”
I prefer to make MATE look more like Windows, with the taskbar on the bottom... otherwise, I leave the Applications Launcher Menu as is.
When I ran Cinnamon Mint I definitely did this. Looked like Windows 7.
Can you make it have those Aero glass effects that was the coolest shit
you can on kde plasma
Funny, I tweaked my Linux PC at work to look like Windows XP. It's so cursed, I love it.
XP was peak Windows, good times
I fucking love KDEs Windows 95 theming for some of the interface, while still looking sleek and fast as hell. That and the Plastik theme for the minimize, fullscreen, and exit buttons. :)
To make my dad switch I made his Mint look like windows, he's happy
Ah, yes, Redmond theme.
Honestly, you do you.
i used to tweak windows to look like Linux.
you mean move the task bar to the side or top?
yep. and a wallpaper too.
Windows 11 be like: We don't do that anymore!
That is actually what brought me back to Linux, I used to run Ubuntu and then Mint around 2010 but had to switch to Windows for work (and stuck around because it works well enough) but the taskbar being stuck on the bottom bothered me enough to finally make the switch back.
meanwhile me with my install of Void Linux using the Chicago95 theme...
Well... I did, it was fun to see the IT support team of my work shaking every time they access my machine to some maintenance:
Eh, if you like the style, theme it to your heart's content
I'm here wishing I could tweak Windows to work like Gnome
Or to have a constant UI and functional tools
I wish I was as stronk as yall. Please be gentle, for I am soft and full of MS-PTSD.
I mean, if I had the time, skill, and drive, I'd probably go to Hell and back customizing my laptop to look like it's running xp since I think that look still holds up to this day.
What do I do to make it look like an old-school UI?
Ctrl+Alt+F1
Install an old school looking theme and icon pack.
Maybe not Psychopath but definitely cursed
