Cosmic Desktop: Hammering Out New Cosmic Features
You can supplement Chicago95 with an experimental GTK4 theme from the b00merang project https://github.com/B00merang-Project/Windows-95 You will have to install it manually by overwriting your user-level GTK4 config, but then it will give you proper styling with the latest apps, including full support for mobile UX 'convergence'.
(Since it seems that the b00merang repo has gone mostly unmaintained, it would be nice if it got imported to Chicago95 itself.)

Windows 98 Icons
Chicago95 is nice, but these days you should also install the (experimental) GTK+4 theme from b00merang https://github.com/B00merang-Project/Windows-95 to get proper styling in the latest apps.

Supermium โ Chromium fork for Win 2003 and newer
If that's a concern for you, there are themes for GTK3 and GTK4 that replicate classic 3D widgets and remove much of the excess padding in modern apps. https://github.com/B00merang-Project/Windows-95 https://github.com/grassmunk/Chicago95 (You should install both; Chicago95 is more actively developed, but B00merang gives you a GTK+4 theme that's currently missing from Chicago95.) Works reasonably well as a daily-driver, giving you a similar look to the modern SerenityOS GUI on a standard Linux system. Even the modern GTK+4 "responsive" apps work as designed, with some non-critical graphical quirks.

Haiku OS: The Open Source BeOS You Can Daily Drive in 2024
https://github.com/B00merang-Project/Windows-95 has a theme for GTK+4 with classic widgets. Unfortunately you'll need to replace your GTK+ user config outright to use it because the new version has no support for themes.

Liberating the MacBook Air 2013 with Linux
Have you tried https://github.com/B00merang-Project/Windows-95 or any of the similar themes by that project? There's a bit of extra padding still but it's vastly more usable than the Adwaita default. (And of course you don't need to bother w/ the retro icon packs shown in the screenshot, the basic GTK+ theme is plenty enough.)

Super Proud of my progress with Mint!
You should install the Windows 95 theme for Mint to match the wallpaper: https://github.com/B00merang-Project/Windows-95/

Been making some changes since my previous post.

Linux 98
So I decided to marry the best of both worlds. This is my 2012 laptop running Linux Mint 20.2 running the Windows 9x theme made by b00merang over on GitHub. It gets very close to looking like the Windows classic theme. So much so that it has actually fooled me a couple times when I was not paying attention.

A Touch of..... Nostalgia?
Continuing my series of trying out Windows-like themes on Linux. This is the Windows 95 theme by, you guessed it, b00merang

Learn AutoHotKey by stealing my scripts
If you like macOS keyboard shortcuts, I recommend you checkout Kinto go Windows and Linux. On Windows, Kinto used AHK
https://kinto.sh
However, at least when I set it up Kinto did not provide switching windows Iโm this fashion. Here is the script I use.

Toshy v23.08: Mac-like per-app keyboard shortcuts. Now supports Solus 4.4.
The project was based on another project that's been around for a few years called Kinto, by Ben Reaves, which notably also has a Windows version (https://kinto.sh) using AutoHotkey. But has no Wayland support (at this time) in its Linux version.

Toshy v23.07: Mac-like per-app keyboard shortcuts. Supports Tumbleweed and Leap.
Toshy is based on Kinto.sh, by Ben Reaves (https://kinto.sh or https://github.com/rbreaves/kinto). Kinto is basically an extensive keymapper config that not only shifts modifier keys appropriately for different keyboard types, but has full keymaps for a number of different apps like VSCode. My variant of Kinto adds some features and utilities for managing the services that make it work, and tools like a script to change the function keys mode of any keyboard that uses hid_apple. That means MacBook keyboards mostly, but also some non-Apple keyboards with media keys apparently use that driver module.

Swap alt and win keys using command line
I donโt know if you can activate it via a keyboard shortcut, but I use Kinto.sh to swap keys on my MacBooks.

Macbook keyboard type for Fedora
Hello, there's an open issue about this in their repo: https://github.com/rbreaves/kinto/issues/772

emergency mac user,can i make it more linux?
There is a setting in keyboard preferences for that.However if you can get yourself used to macOS shortcuts I highly recommend doing so as they seem to be superior especially if you are a programmer and use the terminal a lot, as on macOS you can simply use Command+C to copy from a terminal and Ctrl+C still works for sending SIGINT. Also Command+, will open preferences for almost every application on macOS. Shortcuts on macOS are very consistent across many apps unlike on Linux or Windows. After you get your Linux laptop back you can continue using these shortcuts thanks to a tool called kinto.sh.

Keyd: Linux Key Remapper
Tangential: I'm currently looking for a way to map Mac-style shortcuts on Linux (e. g. Meta + C/V for copy / paste). The only thing I know is https://kinto.sh/, but it looks a bit too janky to my taste. Any other ideas?
