What people in the OSS land don't seem to understand is that the button shapes and control colors are not the killer feature of MacOS.

I can get a "looks like OSX" theme for KDE easily, but KDE will still be weirdly unstable, and have tons of impedance mismatch between it's components. You can't make a Ferrari out of a Ford by painting it the right shade of red.

I dunno if you have never used modern linux, but the current state of it is that you can install Pop OS on a laptop and hand it to your parents and they will figure out how to use it, without ever touching the terminal.

I also don't understand how people say Macs are stable. I get the spinny thing that locks up the entire system about once a week.
