I would reccomend Sway, you can easily theme it to be retro style
Listen… Trinity Desktop Environment, Q4OS. Perhaps with some of the XPQ4 themes (NT/XP/7/8/10).
Don’t tell them about tiling WMs.
xfce is the BEST DE
And combined with Xmonad is superb
I unironically do hate modern UI. I’d love to be able to like windows 98-ify my OS.
Don’t let your dreams be dreams! Just add XFCE :)
Oh my god… Thank you. So much.
Same here, I always got flak for disabling that transparent shit in vista and onwards, I want to work.
Today I’m a serene Linux Mint user “BTW”.
Touchscreen optimized UI sucks when using a mouse and often preforms worse with screen reader navigation.
Based and liking what you like pilled
In defense of xfce, it was my main DE for a few years and you can make it look pretty cool with a few CSS rules.
XFCE has convinced me to switch to Linux. Xubuntu has a nice elementaryOS-like theme by default and apps from the DE are extremely fast.
I really don’t understand the hate it gets. Maybe because the defaults aren’t that good?
Who is hating Xfce? Besides the “lightweight” DE crowd.
The project doesn’t have a lot resources, so it’s behind on things. They do great work for what they have though.
wait, are you saying the lightweight DE crowd hates Xfce? what do they like then?
Yeah, it’s a “middleweight” DE.
LXDE, LXQT, Openbox, i3, Sway, FVWM. That sort of thing.
It doesn’t have so many essential modern features, kde has hdr, proper fractional scaling, mixed refresh rate displays and is much more secure thanks to wayland, plus the performance hit is tiny these days.
Please tell me you can share that amazing wallpaper.
Thanks for sharing! It’s adorable!
You rock. Have a good one
Wait, you can spruce it up? I’ve been running it stock for a year now. The design grew on me because it was installed on all the old desktops in my highschool, and I’ve had it on my laptop ever since.
Is LXQT or LXDE too modern for them?
It’s missing some stuff.
Pixels.
Average ReactOS user (if there are any)
POV good design
u can very easily theme plasma to be retro so im not sure why it an gnome are included meow.
post kinda smells of 4chan
Any examples of those themes?
Most of them are either ugly or incompatible with Plasma 6 :/
meow 🤷
