Details:

  • OS is Debian bookworm, DE is Plasma 5.27.
  • Plasma theme is Oxygen.
  • Icon theme is a slightly modified version of Oxylite, only changes are that it follows my system color scheme, the "inherits" list is different, and the start-here and preferences-system icons have been changed.
  • Wallpaper is Haenau.
  • I'm using Oxygen for Qt widgets and decorations, with the Obsidian Coast color scheme, and standard Breeze Dark for GTK2.
  • Layout is entirely my own. I'm showing my Games activity because the main one contains a folder view that might expose info I don't want to expose here.

Hopefully this is original enough? I'm not sure. I've gotten away with posting desktops with mostly existing themes before, but on other occasions I've had posts removed for it. At least I mixed and matched some icons this time.

@ipacialsection I love the older more skueomorphic style of Oxygen.

Me too, but I also think it just looks cool. Sci-fi vibes.

A beautiful slick theme, and Xonotic in the launchpad. This desktop looks like a good time!

I would personally try and make the window panels darker to match all the parts seen in the first image.

this is my "gaming" Plasma activity, so in theory everything I play regularly is there :)

i'm personally fine with the windows being slightly brighter, but i think an almost-black theme would look good too... might experiment with that, thanks for the suggestion!

As someone who's been trying to avoid flat UIs since IOS 7 dropped, I was pleasantly surprised to find the Oxygen pre-installed on KDE still.

They will not flatten us!

I suspect Plasma 6 will remove it. Though I'm liking this desktop setup so much I might just keep it for the rest of Debian Bookworm's lifespan.
