This is a hail mary, but would there be something similar for getting the Win XP look? I'd love that

Absolutely. I’ve been doing this with the XP theme after this was posted on HN last time and I thought the same thing.

It exists, but need to check where.

Edit: No idea where I got it from. I know I installed the 98 theme first from this thing, and then downloaded a WinXP theme that I selected in all of the places it mattered.

There is a KDE theme called 'Expose', by the same person who made Reactionary, which looks like it might be what you're after. (For icons, there's a set called just called 'Windows XP').

I used to follow the XPDE project avidly back in the day but it seems to have just withered on the vine and never went anywhere.
