Still better than Vanilla Gnome
it using third person got me so confused. like i’d expect someone to use third person with their name at least once so that it’s clear who “it” is (or any other pronoun, actually). also putting less common pronouns in the name is very helpful

Okay, that’s fucking cool.
This is cursed, unnecessary, unexpected and impressive all at the same time.
Ie half of the themes out there
They even got the good version of Aero that doesn’t add weird white stripes to the glass, and instead let’s it just be blurry.
I both love, and hate this. Thanks.
Absolutely came here to say this. It’s so abrasive that I want it just to flaunt.
The beauty of an open system is that you can do pretty much whatever you want in it.

Yeah it’s kinda great ngl
They are making even more cursed stuff but I haven’t found a download yet… But they managed to get the taskbar to show up https://mastodon.catgirl.cloud/@49016/115912856935158763 8hours ago from me commenting
Beautiful; i loved aero
I daily drive AeroThemePlasma by WackyIdeas. Theres also a link to CapWin96’s (I think thats their name) fork for Vista themeing there.
I miss Aero but I don’t know if I can go back to a light theme.
The great thing about it being KDE is that you can choose a dark colour scheme but keep the title bar theming, icons, fonts, etc the same :)
True, I might experiment with it in a VM.
This is the most cursed thing I’ve ever laid eyes on
Oh my word.
I see the mastodan handle, but is there a git or anything to pull try out myself? Would be hilarious to show this to some coworkers
Finally, a settlement to the CSD vs SSD debate we can all be unhappy with.
Who would sacrifice Christopher Street Day for an SSD? Not even worth debating.
If prices keep rising, next year I might be ready to eat pussy for an SSD.
Ok, but did anyone else really dislike this frosted glass thing that Windows did with Vista and 7?
I remember going from XP to Vista, and feeling the customization drop off considerably, and the whole glass thing made the OS feel cold and unwelcoming.
Now windows doesn’t even have any real customization. Hell, Linux distros don’t really even come with whimsical options out of the box anymore either.
Where are my fun cursors?!
KDE is still highly customisable. What are you talking about?
I went nuts with it recently, burning jello windows on a 3d cube desktop environment… good times.
I promptly disabled it all, but it was fun for 10 minutes.
Have you tried KDE? many many options
You can still change the cursors in windows. I’m using KDE’s white oxygen cursors

I remember Vista & 7 both had the Aero Glass themes, a new light blue theme that replaced the Luna themes from XP & the Classic theme. Sure a lot of color schemes & things like cool looking cursors went away, but you could easily copy most of them from older versions. Only limit I can think of is that the blue theme that replaced Luna (And is technically based off of it) sucks.
8 is the version that basically nuked customization with only the new flat theme replacing everything.
Also, fun fact, the blue theme from Vista & the classic themes both do technically exist in 8 & up, but they are hidden & seeing them usually means something is broken.
As for Linux theming, look at DEs other than GNOME, most are still pretty customizable
