It has nothing to do with 1995. Windows 95 was aesthetically conservative but not ugly, unlike KDE3 (which is ugly and NOT conservative).

- Fnoord 6y agoExcept the screenshot is nothing like a KDE 2 default installation looked back in the days. Different colours in taskbar? Nope, was homogeneous in KDE 1/2/3/x (the way it is now is unnecessarily distracting). Taskbar on left and bottom? Nope. There was one the bottom, still is. Dock like macOS? Nope, wasn't there by default. Also, back in the early days of KDE and GNOME you had applications using all kind of toolkits. A DE providing applications with one sole toolkit (be it Qt or Gtk) was a novel direction in the Linux world.
