  • I would say make the top bar the same or similar to the excellent title bars you’ve already got. Currently feels like they’re from 2 different systems.

    EDIT my personal preference is to colour the minimize maximize close buttons.

    Other ideas: round the corners just a tiny bit. Make the dock look more like the taskbar maybe. See if there’s examples from “Windows 95 Plus!” Which I think had extra themes.

    EDIT 2: it looks great, you’ve done a good job here I like it!








  • Mid 90s at work as a project support technician in Sony Broadcast R&D in the UK. Slackware, then red hat mostly. Installed Linux boxes in various digital TV stations in London in 1999/2000, used to insert interactive games into the broadcast stream.

    I was a sysadmin from 99 to about 2018, from then onwards I’m more DevOps. Done a bunch of stuff with CentOS too, including migrating 500k email accounts to our hosted solution. Other cool stuff included a VMware based development environment using Foreman + FreeIPA to auto provision dev VMs with all sorts of puppet code.

    Now at home I run Fedora and work on macOS, writing Terraform and Python. And some nodejs too.

    Been at it a long ass time now lol
