Side topic.
I can't believe the list of top GTK3 Themes [1] are so much influenced by macOS ( second "greatest" one basically replicates even the icons ).
macOS is beautiful, indeed, but as Ralph Waldo Emerson's quoted :
"... Imitation is Suicide."
I bet if the effort is put towards themes that can distinguish GTK from anything else, there will be another reason of Gnome being the best LDE.

- ac29 9y agoA quote widely attributed to Steve Jobs: "good artists copy, great artists steal." Turns out he wasn't really the first to say that or express that sentiment [0], but it'd be hard to argue that Mac OS (at least back in the 80s) didn't heavily rely on copied or stolen features.
