Anyone know how to rice out windows 10 to make it look more retro? Or firefox aswell, on linux its a bit easier but im not sure what type of things i could do that wouldnt affect performance too much

As others have said retro-ricing Windows 10 and 11 is pretty easy, just use both Retrobar and OpenShell and if you want to go the extra mile change some .ico files to their classic version.

Ironically enough, this is harder to do on some Linux distros and environments. Mint Cinnamon has zero Vista themes, though there are a lot of other great classic ones.

Alright, so I finally came up with a solution to the BQ (Browser Question). As I said up the thread, I was kind of homeless and without a browser because Echelon doesn't seem maintained anymore and the browser build it was built on was breaking down. Kinda surprised at how quickly browsers break down, it's from 2024 and was already becoming unusable on a solid chunk of websites.

But anyway after this I started to main Pale Moon but man it just is sooo slow on any remotely modern site and it also breaks in ways that no other browser does and youll have no idea what or why until you test it in another one, probably because it's practically just a fork of really old Firefox versions. Then having to open another browser any time you want to visit a new-ish website just... sucks frankly.

But I recently installed Geckium on Firefox. Now I was aware of Geckium before but kind of spurned it cause from the handful of pics I'd seen I didn't think it looked as cool as Firefox's old look. Still not sure if I do, but it does look better than I had given it credit for at least imo especially if you have a good theme, Chrome's 2008 UI is definitely better than most looks are at least; feels somewhat Y2K almost with the futuristic tab panels and buttons. And I have mostly used Chrome (and IE before) historically anyway so in a sense it feels more familiar to me. Very happy with it.
