My XP looked way cooler

>>108768936
it looks like they are intentionally trying to make a "Windows XP inspired" distro while still respecting Microsoft's intellectual property. For something designed to be a near carbon copy of the actual Windows XP, see https://github.com/rozniak/xfce-winxp-tc

Also using ClearType on Windows XP should result in death penalty

Why would anyone want this?

>>108771900
I'm actually using that xfce winxp tc shit on Arch (package from AUR).
It's because I have nostalgia goggles permanently glued to my face. Also I used XP until I was forced not to (browsers, DirectX) The problem is the fonts still look like shit. I want my XP bitmap fonts back. Scalable fonts make me go blind and give me headache. It's not as bad on Linux as it is on Wangblows 11 but still bad.

>>108771684
i only see 2
>>
>>108771930 (cont)
Also I don't actually call Thunar "explorer" or Mousepad "Notepad" because they're literally different programs. Nor do I use the run prompt.
The XP icons, cursors and fonts are just pure bliss though.

>>108771687
Nothing of value was lost

>>108772047
Except bitmap fonts. And now I have to use Linux like a weirdo. Glad to see that Windows 11 is self-destructing though, maybe Linux will become popular (or Microsoft will fix their OS)
>>
>>108768936
sauce?

>>108768936
I always wonder if the people who release such 10% complete conversion themes are blind, too incompetent to do it right or have given up because of GTK/QT limitations.

silver theme is disgusting

>>108771930
Copy the Windows fonts folder to your Arch install
Usetge Arch Wiki if you dont know how
XP defaulted to Tahoma if i remember correctly
>>
>>108772301
Does pango still support bitmap fonts in 2026 tho?
>>
cos i remember pango doing an update that fucked up people's bitmap fonts, and when people complained about it, pango devs just went "buy a better monitor bro"
(I have a good monitor and scalable fonts still look like shit to me)
>>
>>108768989
all of them are incomplete, I tried so many win7 ones

>>108771687

close enough if you ask me

but I never used the gay fisher price default theme anyway when I was actually using XP

>what it looks like
If all you care about in the first place is "what it looks like" your opinions are irrelevant.
