2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    I honestly don't know about that.

    Can you maybe recommend something that is similar but might be still updated? I really like how KDE used to look back then but I missed out on it. The way most new desktops copy the flat look of Windows and Mac OS annoys me. I want the details back and like my window has sides and shadows.

    I agree a lot. Had Vista and XP machines in the past.

    Then mainly used Win10 and KDE Plasma was a solid upgrade.

    But they really copied the Win10 look which is atrocious. I agree that WinXP and 7 and the era where way better.

    There are themes for everything though. Its just theming. I dont know if all apps support it and have never dealt with it, as Breeze works pretty well with Adwaita and Electron apps too.

    I think there are Kvantum themes for this?

    Glad to read we are thinking alike about these things.

    I see there are some nice themes at the place you've linked. If those work with KDE Plasma, that would certainly be interesting to give a try.

    I'll have a look at that.

    I looked but couldnt find it.

    Tbh I like some of the more modern things, and they are for sure easier to unify. When theming like that, you also need a GTK3 theme, a GTK4 color scheme, a firefox theme etc.

    And many of these toolkits dont support big themes anymore, just swapping colors.
