I don't get the gnome hate, it's my favorite

If it happens to be exactly what you want, then you're golden. If not, you have a fight on your hands.

The #2 reason I'm still on a Mac is because I prefer the look of its UX. Can you recommend a good window manager/theme that replicates macOS Sequoia?

And also one that will replicate system 7 because I am an old and nostalgic man.

System 7 stuff is going to look very small at 2026 screen resolutions. The widget dimensions on it mostly correspond to the original Mac's dimensions, from 1984.

That being said, it looks like archive.org has archives of kaleidoscope.net's


the most popular third-party theme engine


theme archives:

So in theory, somone could make a bulk converter from System 7 themes to GTK or whatever.

There's an "Mac OS" category of GTK themes on gnome-look.org, and I imagine that the KDE people probably have something comparable. I haven't used any myself.

I think the key is to just not hate on someone else for having a preference for one you don't care for. (And not being an overzealous missionary for your own preference.) It's fun seeing the variety and people geeking out about the little intricacies they love about their favorites

That's just a good approach to life in general.
