good read, I like the nuclear dump site meme XD. You might be interested in elements of the Trinity DE (very 2000s KDE look)

i seen trinity before, and it looks very awesome, but i wouldn't use it for like daily use sadly (since it is based off an old version of KDE which may have some security implications i think? idk tbh. also it uses x11 and i really do not like x11 lmao) i may try to get something close to it using modern KDE however

good read :)

good read :) I had no idea other software (like strawberry that u mentioned) would work with ipods, thats sick. I found my partner's old (7th gen?) nano and it works :O

hope it all works out this time. also I used that exact purple stars theme on my firefox/librewolf for years! haha
