    What if… You trolled someone by installing Linux, but with a GUI that 100% mimics Windows? 🤔

    Actually, fuck trolling. I want this. Gimme the OG Windows 95 GUI for KDE/Gnome.

      Apparently, many people want to make Linux look like Windows 95?

          I had not heard of Trinity Desktop. That does look like a much simpler path to beautiful Windows XP stylings.

        ReactOS isn’t Linux. It’s an open source reimplementation of win32.

          I’ll be damned, I did not realize. I’d heard of it and filed it away as an odd bit of trivia, but checking just now it is indeed its own kernel.

          Thanks for the fact check!
