#kde4 — Public Fediverse posts

I think I will need to get a KDE 4 VM installed to do testing to see how Diamond originally looked, because I want to modify Diamond4on6 to both 1. use the version from my backup (2.0.3, meaning the repo version will be rebased [this is because 2.0.3 works better]) and 2. I need to have a way to mess around with it in a state where it works and doesn't have a grey background.

One of the dreams I had last night right before waking up was that I was using the KDE Plasma 4 version of the calendar applet and was confused when I woke up because I couldn't remember if that's what Plasma 6 used or not, but then remembered it was different. It made me want to use that version again since it's way smaller, so if I had the time, I'd try to update it to work on Plasma 6 but it would probably be too much effort.

Found Diamond 2.0.3 for KDE4 in some old backups and uploaded it to Codeberg in a zip file. Later it will be organized. I forgot this version existed and didn't know just how lost the Diamond theme was.

I think I'm going to have #Diamond4on6 versioning be 1.x for the #Plasma4 version and 2.x for the #Plasma6 version. Could probably have a version for #Plasma5 , but I don't use it and it's the old stable version (for now my version would probably work on 5, not sure, though; at least it will be available if someone wants to try).

I'm going to update the Diamond theme for #KDE4 so that it can work better on KDE6, as it's my favorite theme and has a few issues on #KDE6, mainly in the notifications. The project also doubles as an archival for this version, as I can't find everything in it consistently anywhere, and you can download it here:

I don't know why the #MATEDesktop "clicks" so well for my brain and how much I enjoy it despite it being so quirky and much less easily/extensively customized vs. #KDE (I also loved #KDE4, despite so many people hating it; the key is to install the QtCurve Kwin and controls theme and the Diamond [something] Plasma theme and it will look amazing; glad there was a continuation like Trinity for #KDE3 last I checked, hope it's still going and I wonder if anyone will do one for #Plasma5).

Dang I really crave some #tech #nostalgia atm. I want some #WindowsVista, I want some #KDE4, I want some skeuomorphic icons, and most of all, I want #FrutigerAero

Heaven help me, I'm getting used to the windows 11 start menu.

What?

I didn't say I LIKED it.
