- petepete 7y agoI'd recommend LXDE or XFCE for this kind of desktop. With this theme, you can even make XFCE look just like Windows 95. https://github.com/grassmunk/Chicago95 https://github.com/grassmunk/Chicago95
- zozbot234 7y agoI'd like to see a KDE1/GNOME1/FVWM version of this. Something that could be packaged in a Linux distribution and be accessible out of the box.
- petepete 7y agoThere's a theme for Gnome 2/Mate that looks quite extensive. Pretty niche market these days I guess. https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1012363/ https://www.gnome-look.org/p/1012363/
- ahartmetz 7y agoI've been saying for a long time that one thing the free DEs have going for them is that they don't consist so much of separate parts, each of which needing to advertise for itself. No need for FooApp to look extra special, no need to shove the name into the user's face. Universal document readers with format plugins, such as Okular, are a nice example. Not great at most things not PDF but you can see the idea. A universal tagging and rating system kind of exists in KDE but somehow it hasn't turned out as useful as it promised initially (IMO). There is still a lot of unrealized potential in that area.
