Hi guys.

My mom has pretty old and shitty home HP notebook and I was thinking that since she mainly uses it for browsing Facebook and watching Youtube that I would upgrade it for her to Linux instead of Win 11. The only thing is that I want some lightweight desktop like XFCE or maybe Mate and to make it as painless as possible for her I would like to install Windows 10 looking theme on that machine.

Do you guys know of any good themes that are updated at least on semi-regular?

Thanks. ;)

    I found a Windows XP theme for Cinnamon. Not because I need it to look like Windows, but because nostalgia can be fun and XP was iconic. The bit I really like is the actual Windows XP default system sounds I also got my paws on, though. That was back when software developers cared about good soundscapes!

    Though I have to admit, the classic grey boxy look basically every computer GUI had in the 90s is also something I really like. So maybe I’m just way more stuck in the old days of tech than my chronological age might suggest is possible.
