Here's mine. No inspiration at all taken from a certain California based company's OS ;p
I use:
- Manjaro OS
- GNOME desktop
- WhiteSur icon theme (with a few icons changed in the desktop file)
- WhiteSur GTK and shell theme
- Bing wallpaper
- net speed simplified
- Logo Menu
- Show Desktop
- Top Bar Organiser (to move the time to the right)
- Overview background
I apologise if I missed anything.

Ah, I never had Windows 7 so perhaps that's why I can bear it! Either way the reason I chose to use it is because I like skeuomorphic themes and all the GTK themes are flat these days, even Elementary
bitwolf@lemmy.one · 4 pts · 2y
This is amazing. It even has the classic guassian blur.
Do the light ribbons that overlay the blur remain constant like in Win7? Or are they fixed on the window borders?
SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 2y
Yes, they remain constant. The theme author actually created a Plasma extension specifically for this!

It's a foldable, unfolded. And that's XFCE with a Windows 95 theme - there's plenty of fans of the classic 90's look, in fact, people have made an entire operating system around that aesthetic.

A Galaxy Fold 4. I used this script which made it pretty easy to install the whole thing, but you can also install it reasonably easily using proot-distro, if you want a choice of distro/more customisation options.

JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee · 1 pts · 2y
You use both light and dark mode? And what's arc menu?
kabe@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 2y
Yeah, so Gnome has an extension called Night Theme Switcher which automatically changes your background, icons, theme, cursor etc. based on a user-defined day/night schedule. It works great.
Arc Menu is another extension which gives Gnome a standard start menu (since it doesn't come with one by default) in the top lefthand corner. It also comes with a KRunner-like app launcher that pops up in the middle of the screen instead of using the default Gnome Overview UI.
Both these extensions make Gnome feel a little more natural for desktop use, IMO.
JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee · 8 pts · 2y
One of the great things I like about GNOME is how much you can customise it.
baduhai@sopuli.xyz · 7 pts · 2y
I find this comment really funny, because while gnome is very customisable compared to the desktop environments in macos and Windows, compared to the majority of DEs/WMs in Linux, it's not very customisable at all.
sag@lemm.ee · 6 pts · 2y
Yep Behold KDE and XFCE.
kabe@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y
Yeah, the customization might not be as extensive as Plasma, but you can certainly add a ton of extra functionality with extensions.

I never understood why people make their linux distros look like mac
HouseWolf@lemm.ee · 15 pts · 2y
The obvious answer is people who grew up using Macs tend to like the Ui and workflow.
Even though I've never enjoyed my times using MacOS, I'll still sell being able to perfectly clone it's desktop as a feature of Linux for those who do.
RageAgainstTheRich@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 2y
Its looks fancy and feels nice. Its really just a theme so everything else works the same. Everyone has different things they like.
Yerbouti@lemmy.ml · 8 pts · 2y
I hate Apple but macOs is always super well.designed. if you wann know what Windows will look like in 5-6 years, look at the current macOs version.
0xb@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y
I wouldn't use a complete macos theme with the logo and everything, but the mac design language does have some pretty nice details that even help usability.
For example, I love the double outline that macos windows have, the normal darker line and another lighter inside. To me, it really separates windows when I am working with several, and they overlap (I use mac at work), in addition to looking nice and giving some depth. That's just a little detail, but there are many like that one that is easy to see why someone could appreciate them.
Obviously it varies from person to person, there's also stuff that I don't like, but I do can see why someone would use a theme like that.
harderian729@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y
Probably because you can't see things from other perspectives than your own.
lemann@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 5 pts · 2y
Themes and DEs inspired by Mac tend to have a very clear and consistent design language IME

JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee · 3 pts · 2y
It looks nice. I still prefer the functionality and responsiveness of Linux though, and I didn't clone every feature of the macOS UI.
BananaTrifleViolin@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y
It kinda makes sense to me; my KDE desktop is basically set up like Windows in terms of layout (not theming). It's what I'm used to and prefer the familiarity.
I can imagine people who are used to MacOS like the familiarity of GUI layout and the aesthetics too. Also in fairness to Apple, it is an aesthetically pleasing desktop even if the layout and GUI elements (such as the dock or the top menu bar) isn't what I like.

UnhappyCamper@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 2y
It hasn't been ported over to Plasma 6, any widgets that were on 5 need to be updated to work, unfortunately. So if there are any widgets that have been abandoned, that's it for them. No clue if Clear Clock has been abandoned, but it hasn't been touched since release, so that's concerning.

Mine is pretty simple, about the same since 2008, Xfce, with a bottom taskbar with window, a little bit like in Windows XP. I added Teams quicklaunch lately, else it's only file manager, FF, terminal.

Mine is simply default KDE. The only visible thing I've changed is the wallpaper -- changes to my desktop mostly concentrate on the "invisible" ones like shortcut keys or setting changes or scripting.

More or less replicated the desktop layout I had used throughout childhood, sans desktop icons

If i wanted to use MacOS, i'd just use my macbook
anyways, my linux looks like standard mint... coz im a linux noob
BananaTrifleViolin@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y
Or they're getting the best of both worlds, a Linux desktop with the MacOS aesthetic. Not to my taste, but they're using Linux how they want it to look.
You can do a lot with the Mint Cinnamon desktop too, without much effort.

Pretty close to default. Using SF Compact Display fonts and Newaita reborn icons. Most of the time I have a bunch of windows open and I rarely see the desktop, except when I start the day :)

Seeing lots of discord on these. Anyone else like me and have to install updates to it a couple times a week from the package manager before it will open? I also notice it seems to close itself after a while, I think if the computer sleeps then wakes.

yeah discord is kinda fucking annoying on linux for that reason. i'd recommend something like vencord (vesktop) over discord's client
Hexarei@programming.dev · 1 pts · 2y
I just use discord in a browser on my machine. Cant stand the desktop client.

11 inch screen, so packed pretty tight. Openbox with tint2, left half of the top bar is conky. The bargraph that shows "Mem" is dynamic, it alternates between Mem/Swap/HD. I think the background image is from LXDE's very nice collection of wallpapers.

I use gnome with dash-to-panel. I can't do docks or top bars.

Nah, I'm just inspired my macOS's design, there are still many things I prefer about Linux.
For one thing, the UI on macOS feels very unresponsive, and that's not just because I've mainly used it in a VM, I've used it on a real device too and it had the same issues. It's a fundamental issue on putting transitions that are way too long on simple functions that don't need to be a transition at all. I can't even move the cursor normally, it's smoothed in such a way that it takes much longer to get it into a precise position.
Secondly, they refuse to use the same keyboard shortcuts as Windows and Linux, and I didn't see an easy way to change them back.
Thirdly, you need to sign into an Apple account to use many apps or features of the OS. They also block a bunch of things that are simple to do in Linux.

Currently, I have 3 DEs installed that I use regularly. Cinnamon, i3, and Unity. Cinnamon is for retro themes, and Unity is for a modern mac look after tweaks. and i3 is just nerd porn

Debian with KDE. I've had this set up on my laptop for a few weeks to see how well Debian stable would work as a daily driver with Flatpaks and/or Nix packages mixed in. I'm really liking it so far, so I'll probably migrate my desktop over to a pretty similar set up soon. Right now it looks pretty similar visually, but is running Fedora 39.
JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee · 1 pts · 2y
How do you get the file edit view etc things in the top bar?
Borkdornsorkpor@lemmy.ml · 4 pts · 2y
It's a KDE widget called global menu, but I believe there's also a GNOME extension that will do the same thing.
Pixel@lemmy.sdf.org · 3 pts · 2y
I'm on pop os with gnome but using dash-to-panel to get a more classic Taskbar look. I love that extension and seems extremely well supported even across upgrades, it's so good I donated. Maybe I'll add a screenie later.
As for op's pic, I understand liking a particular setup, but to use their proprietary icons too seems strange to me. To each their own, I guess. I thought it was literally a mac on a Linux /c.

I've been running stock Pop!_OS for quite a while now. The only thing I've done is pin the dock to the left side of the screen.
By the way, I see Toto coming up on your playlist!
