So I’ve been customizing my system for a few days now to look more like a mac-book, and I’ve found this program called “plank”, which is supposed to be a mac-like dock for Linux. However, it doesn’t operate or function correctly, as I use fedora KDE Spin. I was trying to install Pantheon, but I don’t think its supported anymore, or at least the package does not exist.
No match for argument: pantheon desktop
Error: Unable to find a match: pantheon desktop
I would love to know if anyone has any ideas to make my system look like MacOS, without a massive headache.
It depends what you like on MacOS the most.
If you value the look and want to make it as similar as possible, then use KDE with some of the great global themes. Two docks, one high and cut off application dock at the bottom, and one thin with status icons and global menu at the top. Looks very similar!
If you like it’s simplicity, polish and gestures, take a look at Gnome with some extensions and modifications (dash to dock, window icons all on and left, etc.).
Also, something MANY forget, XFCE and Cinnamon exist too and are also very similar, at least compared to some older versions (no blur and so on). Sadly, they don’t support Wayland yet.
The real question is: Why do you want to do that? I mean, yeah, Linux is about choice, and I absolutely respect that, and if you love the theme of MacOS then go for it.
But there are SO many other great concepts around. Plasma is unique, and Gnome even more with it’s simplicity and amazing workflow. Pantheon isn’t a clone of MacOS and maybe not the best choice in general from what I’ve heart.
But yeah, in short, try KDE and modify it.
