>>51938258
go look at the desktop threads. There are some pretty nice looking designs

Lincucks everyone
Freetards have absolutely 0 taste in aesthetics. Even the less egregious looking DEs, like KDE Plasma, are clearly an amateurs attempt at flat design.
I just gave up trying to rice Linux since all the themes look like dog shit. Stock LXQt gets the job done.

Well meme'd sir, thank you for completely disregarding the existence of KDE to spout the "Linux looks like shit" meme. Two and a half shekels have been added to your PayPal account, courtesy of Microsoft Corporation.

It's not ugly but something still feels off about it.
>>51938258
Windows XP/2003 Classic Theme was the best Windows GUI ever, and was somewhere in between the two in your picture. It was slick, no-bullshit and to-the-point, but didn't feel as antiquated as the earlier 2k/98/95 ones.
>>51940371
Because people who shill for Windows here are usually from third world countries. Indians especially for some reason. India has many people and many of them are 180+iq tier geniuses who have Linux installed, but you also get many run of the mill windows users

or
>>51943678
Step 1: use fvwm
Step 2: use a 256-color wallpaper
Step 3: use really old raw Xlib or Xaw applications where possible (some distros package the Xaw version of GVim as vim-athena)
Step 4: find a gtk theme that looks suitably shitty
Step 5: find and install the TTF versions of System and Fixedsys.
GNOME 3, Numix icon pack and Arc GTK and shell.
Wa la, nice looking lunix

Good, I hate freetards and open sores advocates. The engineers and programmers at Microsoft and Apple work hard to make a great OS. Pay for it and support it you bunch of niggers.

Are Windows users legitimately dumb or just trying to trigger someone?
You literally cannot make this comparison. You can't change the DE on Windows. You can _kinda_ change it on Mac OS. GNU/Linux has no default or official DE. These comparisons just don't make sense.
>>51945874
not really.. it's just downloading a .msi and running it for you basically.. like using wget and then executing
it can't handle dependencies or rollbacks or anything interesting like that
