From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Progress looks nice! Not a big fan of how the osd and tabs look, but everything else is quite nice

I think the osd looks good but yeah the tabs are kinda ugly tbh

To be fair I've never seen window tabs on a twm that look good

They would look better if they added padding and switch from border color to state based background color. But if they did that, they would have to rework their design system. Too much work. I bet they tackle that much farther into it's life cycle.

They build a desktop toolkit which can be used for many others, with way different styles. Budgie thought about that but abandoned the idea afaik.

I feel like OSDs would look much better with some background transperancy which they added to the terminal couple days ago. So I would hope it gets added to OSDs soon as well
