Help request Looking for a Theme Recommendation
I am setting up a new laptop for my wife and want to simplify things for myself since I will need to maintain it. Therefore, I am hoping to stick to MX Linux, but using the KDE branch, which I haven't used yet. I mostly stick to XFCE for myself.
My wife is rather comfortable and likes the MacOS layout. I had her on Budgie for awhile and she loved it. She has also played with a modified Fedora KDE layout, after Budgie got buggie.
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has any theme recommendations for KDE to get it as close to a MacOS or Budgie style of appearance.
If it helps, though unlikely, she will be using a Lenovo T580 with 16gb of ram.

That is rather pretty.

It should have a light and dark version if I've seen that correctly, but I know next to nothing about KDe. Xfce 4 Life.

Budgie is in the MX repos.
Otherwise I know there are MacOS themes for XFCE & assume there will be themes for KDE too.
I just did a quick google & there are MacOS themes on the KDE store.

Have you looked at GNOME? It's closer to macOS than KDE. I've never used it but this might be what you're looking for.
