windows 10 made to look like windows 2000 (modified classic theme to my liking, since you could do that in versions that contained CT)

Damn, it looks cool. Is it still buggy? When tried to use a classic theme on my old w10 install it was a complete mess...
In the meantime I switched to KDE (since gnome messed up everything with gtk4)

there are some bugs like context menus breaking but you can fix alot of them, the winclassic forums can help out alot. i actually use win10 for retro games (until like 2007) and games that dont work on linux and linux for games after 2007 that work with proton

Oh yeah, the context menus are a broken as hell. (even without modding the shell). Win10/11 still feels like an unfinished OS for me, it has 6 different context menus and I don't know how many gui toolkits built in...

It is recommended here due to concerns of link rot. You know the feeling of checking old sites and seeing addresses to Megaupload or any other dead sites? FeelsBadMan By the way, you should do the same on your first image on this thread. Do not worry, the VPS Matt used to host this site probably has enough storages for all of our needs LOLXD

The battery widget is just a floating icon for BatteryBar. Sadly W11 doesn't support toolbars in the taskbar anymore.

Rocking a clean desktop with the icons turned off because I search for everything in my file explorer. My wallpapers are a slideshow of my favourites from the Ultimate Windows Wallpaper Pack. https://www.deviantart.com/windowsaesth ... -942163195

Since you seems to aim for minimalist look, you could follow the UNIX philosophy and write a shell script that echos your computer's battery status from

Code: Select all

<code>/sys/class/power_supply/BAT*/</code>
and makes sway's default bar call it by adding this in your config (with editing from /path/to/script to the actual script's path, of course):

Code: Select all

<code>bar * status_command /path/to/script</code>
Also, read the manual :tf:

Code: Select all

<code>man 5 sway</code>
