I have basically combined the App and Mimetype icons of Colloid, the symbolic icons of Papirus and the Folder Icons of Zorin into one theme, I present to you Uniformity.

But this is not just a simple copy paste, here's what I changed.

1. Adapted the install script to this new structure so that it is easy to download themes with different folder colours.
2. Recreated the Zorin folder theme is SVG and changed all the glyphs.
3. Added over 40+ new app icons including a redesigned Flatseal Icon, Bazaar, Fragments, Eden, Musicbrainz and more.

I have made these and tested on Gnome only however they should work just fine with KDE as well. I would love for you to try it out and let me know what you'd like to see. I have laid down the groundworks for schemes which means you can adapt nord and catppuccin themes to this icon pack as well. The script works fairly well execpt the -t all flag seems to be a bit broken so I suggest installing colours individually.

This is Zen Browser. A firefox based browser that looks beautiful, is open source and gives you amazing qol features like split tabs and much more without a heavy AI overtone.

This browser also supports Mods/Themes via the Zen Store. My current setup is created by using those mods. Details in the comments.

Finished this gem for the first time a while ago. Honestly if there was ever a timeless game this one is it.

I went to botw subreddits once when I lost my save file hoping someone had it around where I lost it but no one did. So since I was replaying anyways I started making a savefile dump for lost souls like mine ...

Here you go!

Works with cemu and requires DLC.

Here's the link.

GitHub Page of the original creator.

How I did it:

Took the png files from the github repo and used a software called RealWorld Cursor Editor to create these.

You'll have to install manually as idk how to write the install file.

Okay I know this sounds like click bait but trust me switching over to linux requires you to first master the open source software that you will be replacing your windows/mac counterparts with. Doing it in an unfamiliar OS with no fallback to rely on is tough, frustrating and will turn you off of trying linux. DISCLAIMER: I know that some people cannot switch to linux because open source / Linux software is not good enough yet. But I urge you to keep track of them and when so you can know when they are good enough.

The Solution

So I suggest you keep using windows, switch all your apps to open or closed source software that is available on linux. Learn them, use them and if you are in a pinch and need to use your windows only software it will still be there. Once you are at a point where you never use the windows only software you can then think of switching over to linux.

The Alternatives

So to help you out I'll list my favorites for each use case.

MS Office -> Only Office

1. Not for folks who use obscure macros and are deep into MS Office
2. Has Collaboration and integration with almost all popular cloud services..
3. Has a MS Office like UI and the best compatibility with MS Office.

Adobe Premiere -> Da Vinci Resolve

1. It is closed source but available on linux
2. Great UI, competitive features and a free version

Outlook -> Thunderbird

1. Recently went through massive updates and now has a modern design.
2. Templates, multi account management, content based filters, html signatures, it is all there.

Epic Games, GOG, PRIME -> Heroic

1. Easy to use, 1 click install, no hassel
2. Beautiful UI
3. Automatically imports all the games you have bought

PDF Editor -> LibreOffice Draw

1. Suprisingly good for text manipulation, moving around images and alot more.
2. There might be slight incompatibilities (I haven't noticed anything huge)
3. But hey, it's free

How do I pick a distro there are so many! NO

So finally after switching all the apps you think you are ready? Do not fall into the rabbit hole of changing your entire OS every two days, you will be in a toxic relationship with it.

I hate updates and my hardware is not that new

1. Mint - UI looks a bit dated but it is rock solid
2. Ubuntu - Yes, I know snaps are bad, but you can just ignore them

I have new hardware but I want sane updates

1. Fedora
2. Open Suse Tumbleweed

I live on the bleeding edge baby, both hardware and software

1. Arch ... btw

Anyways what is more important is the DE than the distro for a beginner, trust me. Gnome, KDE, Cinnamon, etc. you can try them all in a VM and see which one you like.

SO TLDR: Don't switch to linux! Switch to linux apps.

Aurora

• Plasma Theme: Colloid Dark
• Icon Theme: Colloid Dark + Custom Icons
• Wallpaper: Here
• Terminal: Konsole
• Fetch: Fastfetch
• Widget 1: Fokus (Pomodoro)
• Widget 2: Disk Usage

Winget (Better than Ninite)

Terminal application manager for windows. If you don't want to bother too much with the terminal

1. Go to winstall.app and add as many apps as you want.
2. Click generate script, select powershell, copy the code.
3. Open powershell and copy paste.

I have my script saved on a notepad incase I have to reset windows or set up a new PC, turns something that takes hours into something that takes minutes.

Filelight (Better than WinDirStat)

It is open source (Made by KDE Devs), faster and better looking.

You can hover over each subsection to get more details

Flow Launcher (Better than windows search)

Open source, looks better, searches your apps, settings, control panel AND google instead of bing, gives better results and allows blacklisting and alot more.

KDE Connect (Better than Phone Link)

Well better for Non Samsung users. Gives you

• Notifications
• Air Drop
• Clipboard Sync
• Remote Shutdown/Any Command and more.

ShareX (Better Than Clipping Tool)

Has more options, has the ability to only copy to clipboard and not save. Is what I'm using to write this right now.

Playnite (Better than Steam/Gog Galaxy IMO)

• open-source,
• supports theming,
• automatic metadata serach,
• supports multiple stores,
• has emulation support out of the box
• and huge plugin library for extra functionality.

Switch, GBA, NES, PC, DS it is all here.

Mica For Everyone (Better Than Windows)

Adds Black/White Titlebars based on your theme choice or manual choice.

Edit: Using Mica used to cause artifacts it is fixed now.

This is what KDE connect looks like without MFE :C

ModernFlyouts (Better Than Windows)

Better Volume/Key Notification. IT ALSO TELLS YOU IF YOUR NUM LOCK IS ON. Underrated.

Will My PC Burn Keeping So Many Things in the Background?

I can't close Firefox or I'll lose my post sorry :(. Also ShareX for SS (Takes about 1%)

Disclaimer: I have 16 GB DDR4 Memory and I have only closed the utilities mentioned in this post.

Everything On

Everything Off
