I hear you, but they've all moved along in leaps and bounds. Some options if you ever look again -

* ElementaryOS(https://elementary.io/)

I’ve seen Raycast adjacent apps for Linux, but I don’t know what the current go-to all the kids are using these days. I used Quicksilver on OS X back in the day, which kind of defined the category I think. But these days I try to keep it simple.

Elementary OS seems to be trying to solve for the design issue, but it’s not as polished as macOS and there are still all the 3rd party apps to contend with. I’ve tried it, and it didn’t have me considering a full time switch.

For me, one of the big things keeping me on macOS is the sync between devices. 20 years ago it seemed much easier to move to Linux, because I didn’t have to worry about my contacts, calendar, etc being in sync everywhere. Having all that stuff, and the handoff between devices, just work is a huge benefit. There are probably ways to sync various things between iOS and Linux, but then researching all the options, setting it up, and keeping up on it all, becomes a hobby. That’s not a hobby I want at this stage of my life.

I thought ElementaryOS was dead due to infighting between the two cofounders, but it still seems to be going: https://elementary.io/

(I installed it on one box a few years ago and liked it, but moved back to Ubuntu once I learned about its conflict in the team.)

As an alternative to the other (great) suggestions, check out ElementaryOS.

But get an old laptop, download and install on it https://elementary.io/, or PopOS or Debian (they all resemble macOS) or whatever distro you like the most. And start tinkering.

I would suggest installing elementaryOS inside a VM, and follow their getting started guide

Elementary OS e un distro de Linux cu aspect de macos

Maybe take a look at https://elementary.io/? It was one of the better "out of the box" linux distros when I was last using linux.

It warms my heart seeing all my fellow linux users here! 😊 I personally use elementary OS because the desktop is pretty 🥺. Also, the lead of the project is a trans woman!

Gnome Shell Theme: WhiteSur Theme with modified accent colors from the .css file where I changed the green color (had installed the green varient) with the baby blue/almost cyan color.

Then this is where you want to report it

If you like the aesthetics of MacOS, you could try Big Sur Theme. In the repo there are instructions on how to apply the theme into gtk3 and gtk4 apps and also on libadwaita apps.

I have written https://taoofmac.com for the last 20 years, and have spent the last year progressively using GNOME and Fedora more and more.

I use the WhiteSur GTK theme (https://github.com/vinceliuice/WhiteSur-gtk-theme) so that I don't have to decipher the nuances of the standard GNOME iconography (some of it is... well, not as pretty, and definitely not as intuitive).

I love this setup, but if GNOME decides to keep breaking user themes, I will have to look elsewhere (most likely a different Fedora spin, although definitely not KDE).

Thank you, I am looking for stylepak. Moreover I corrected the spelling error in the post! with "--flatpak" option I was referring to the Readme of the WhiteSur gtk theme, but actually looking into the install.sh there is no option for it.

Close to macOS is just the rice I use https://github.com/vinceliuice/WhiteSur-gtk-theme
