I personally value my ability to make bad decisions
Man I miss windows vista. It was peak windows design. I loved the glassy windows and buttons.
I miss Windows 7. The default wallpapers were a treat. I remember one that had like a flying turtle with a city on its back
It was aesthetic
If someone wrote a Linux theme that could replicate Windows Aero, I would install it without a second thought.
The B00merang Project has gotten most of the theme components mostly down, but without Aero it’s just not worth tweaking to get everything right.
Chicago95 brought Windows 95 to Linux, I’m patiently waiting for someone to bring back Windows 7…
I like the aero aesthetic tbh, especially the vista rendition.
It’s heavy on GPU for sure; but it manages to pull off a relatively consistent look (or at least more consistent than anything that came after)
GPUs nowadays are orders of magnitude better than the ones during the era of Vista.
I see no reason why we can’t have Aero everywhere, even on systems with integrated graphics.
That’s the power of Linux, you can make it yours.
Sounds nice for somebody that likes windows 7 and don’t want to use obsolete system kek
I actually kind of like that.
I remember using Icewm and it had a theme that mimicked XP lol.
