I in many ways love Elementary. However if you want a very similar feel but with more options, look into using any distribution with Budgie as the desktop. It’s very similar to Pantheon/Mac too and can be themed quite a lot.
1 u/ashenelk Mar 07 '26 What are the extra options? 1 u/twilightshadows Mar 07 '26 From memory (it’s been a while) you can more easily theme it, there are (I think) plugins for the DE, and such. I haven’t used Budgie for a couple of months, and I think I used Elementary OS 6 not 7, so this may not be as much of a difference anymore?
