I wanted a bit of a nostalgia for my old repurposed work laptop. Here's the repo for Chicago95: https://github.com/grassmunk/Chicago95

Some may call it heresy, but I abaolutely love thenes of old Windows on Linux. It's familiar and nostalgic at the same time. Got a Windows XP theme on my Laptop, and plan to use a Windows 7 theme on my main rig when I finally set it up with Linux.

Those themes are truly important... Mist users at my work dont know that they are using Linux because it is looking like Windows 10.

No complaints so far, because they Know where every Button is.

(The people are gave Linux are mostly need the Computer for Mails and Word)

@DadVolante @Albatross2724 Have you been enjoying your experience so far?

[–] Albatross2724@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Absolutely, granted I mostly use this laptop for watching shows at night in bed, so it hasn't been through as much rigorous testing as my gaming desktop.

[–] DadVolante@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

I have! It's definitely a learning curve though. I basically am just googling my way through every hump so far!

Thanks I'm going to make this my go-to for vms that need a gui for whatever reason!

Should there be a rule for discouraging posting popular premade setups and themes?

[–] CaptainHowdy@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

I don't think so. I'm happy to see this theme as I haven't seen it before. Let's do as little gatekeeping here as possible.
