This is giving me warm vibes, so I’d love to find a theme that is like this. Does anyone know any? I’m using GNOME, but any DE that can pull this off is fine.

    Paper GTK theme is a little bit similar, though with more vibrant colours ofc.

      My problem with that theme is that it doesn’t highlight any buttons. I believe all buttons should have borders, especially the ones the titlebar. This helps distinguish a noninteractive label from an interactive clickable button.

    Man, my tastes are weird because as much as I LOVE dark mode, I would absolutely rock a theme like this.

    A lot of the suggestions in the comments kinda miss the mark… What we want is a very flat 2D-ish theme with over exaggerated shadowing, simple icons, and gentle rounded text areas and windows. None of the elements give the appearance of 3D curves or crevices. They remind me more of stickers.

    One thing that bugs me with that mockup (and sorry because you won’t be able to unsee it) is the inconsistency in shadows - some buttons have it, some don’t. Some icons have it, some don’t.

    It is otherwise a really clean and nice layout. I dig the retro warm vibes.

      The buttons with the shadow are the ones that will work with the return/enter key. It’s intentional and a convention from early Mac OS.

      This design is basically a color version of the early Mac desktop. With vector designs that are used on the current MacOS.

    Where did you got this image from? Knowing its origin could help find the source of the theme, if it is at all an existing theme.

      Found it on some Japanese image aggregator website, I can’t remember how I came across it, just that I liked it esthetically.

    I want this so bad. Although in practice I imagine none of this will fit together well with the YouTube interface or with a custom desktop background.

    really nice! I guess it’s a tiling window manager that arranges desktop icons too?

    Yellow bars for inputs/dialogs, Blue for general popups(?), orange for errors and file managers, and white for tabbed windows/browsers.

    I used Google Lens on the picture and it brought up a lot of sites like Shutterstock. If you’re better with icons than me you can probably do something with it.
