Let’s be honest, the rankings of gnome-look are weird at best and there is no good resource to gauge what icons / cursors / themes people like to use in their everyday DE.

So please share what icon-pack / cursor theme / GTK|QT theme you use, and why.

    • Icon theme : Papirus

    • Shell and GTK theme : Yaru Dark ( the ubuntu darkmode one )

    For cursors, i use the default Adwaita. Even though i shifted from ubuntu to arch 7 years ago, i always liked the orangish theme of ubuntu.

    I used to be really into theming. But now, the default Breeze and Adwaita look good enough that I haven’t bothered wanting to change them in a couple years.

    That and thmes always appeared to be some degree of “broken” that I just don’t bother anymore.

    I do always change the cursor to the black Adwaita one, even on KDE. It just feels right to me.

    When I did still use themes, Numix, Arc Dark, and whatever “flat” themes that I could find were my favorites.

    Icon theme : Papirus Theme: Catppuccin Macchiato Cursor: Catppuccin Dark

    As you can see I enjoy the catppuccin colorscheme for its variety.

    I used the Sweet-KDE color scheme for years on KDE Plasma, but recently I’ve been converting everything to Catppuccin Macchiato. Default icons and cursors.

    I’m using EndeavourOS XFCE, but with two things on top:

    • Nightfox Dusk BL GTK theme
    • Tela Purple Dark icon theme

    I think these two work really well together

    Adapta-gtk with Papirus icons, because i like clear lines and less optical clutter.

    I would like Materia too, but that goes actively against my choice to have some transparency in Whiskermenu.

    KDE Plasma 5

    • Global theme: Win7OS
    • App style: Oxygen
    • GTK theme: Windows10
    • Colours: Win7OS
    • Window Decorations: Expose Air
    • Fixed font: MesloLGS Nerd Font 10pt
    • Icons: Windows 7 Ultimate 7600

    Good standard layout. None of that panel on the left nonsense.

    I use Plasma with Breeze Dark theme and icons and adwaita cursors. Boring but works for me.

    I’m kind of rocking my own colourscheme, based around 4 colours: #467b96 as primary, #889fa7 as secondary, #dfdfdf for white, and a mix of #696969 #282c34 and #343434 for shades of gray and black, with #282c34 being the primary background colour I stick with. I also use some shades of my primary and secondary colours from time to time. It looks really good with the Arc-Darkest GTK theme and Sardi-Flat-Arc as an icon theme. Alternatively, I’ve looked into papirus with blue as a folder colour, but I prefer Sardi-Flat-Arc.

    Edit: Most other colours come from either the doom-one colourscheme or from the terminal colourscheme for Alacritty from ArcoLinux.
