I agree with @BrodieOnLinux@linuxrocks.online a lot here.

I think a color scheme solves a lot, but the color gradients etc. are still gone.

What is your favourite non-white light theme, best for Plasma 6?

Please add a screenshot!

    Agreed. Anyone got a KDE screenshot from that era?

    I have to say I like this one

    Dolphin

    Early KDE design was so weird, like transparency and Windows 95-ish rest? For sure!

    strange

      kde can still look like that too:

      kde oxygen theme, plasma 5.27

      i really hope oxygen does get ported to plasma 6, and not dropped like the air theme has been


      i must say though, as much as i prefer the look of light themes usually, i think dark themes are objectively[1] better unless you’re in bright sunlight: images and video aren’t affected by themes, so dark themes put the focus on the media, whereas light themes can wash them out

      (current theme setup)


      1. this is conjecture, i haven’t done any studies ↩︎
