Much better than modern minimalist look.
Currently I sport Oxygen theme with GNOME icons which is good enough, but it's not quite there.That post made me go full nostalgia - I started on Linux with KDE 3.5, and Trinity preserves its "feel" rather well.
It probably would for me too, if it didn't become my default DE.
...it's weird to think about it. When that trainwreck of the initial KDE 4 release kicked off, I switched to GNOME 2, so I didn't give Trinity a chance; but when the trainwreck of GNOME 3.0 kicked off, I simply couldn't be arsed - instead I kept using it as MATE.
TIL about Trinity. Honestly looks pretty cool and cosy, although maybe that's just the nostalgia talking. It's always nice to see projects to maintain more retro visuals while running modern software on modern hardware.
Trinity is criminally underrated. Compared to modern lightweight desktop environments (XFCE, MATE, LXQt, etc.), it's far more feature-complete and in spite of that it manages to run lighter than any of them.
As someone who's never used a desktop like that before, that looks both cool and horrible af lol
Do you know how you could install this theme on today's KDE Plasma? Or is there any distro that uses this desktop format?
