this may be an unpopular opinion but software should be a lot, a looooooooooooooot more sustainable than it is right now, the drive for profit forces consumers to throw away old devices for new ones, this is so horribly wasteful it's offensive
have you tried it a custom windows version before? a windows pc that needs at least 25 gb could be in just plain 8gb, you need 8gb of ram at least? a custom made windows could run under 1.5gb or so.
this is a world of difference for people from low income countries who have low end devices, its the difference from barely running software to a fully working machine
Remember jailbreak and rooting? the phone modding community is still going, there are multiple projects to run a customized version of android, people are even trying to put linux on it, there are even indie phone manufacturers now!!!!!!!!!!, you could buy right now a phone that is not from a big company, but why all of this? to get away from android/samsung/apple as much as possible and reclaim hardware as our own.
a lot of devices that reached end of commercial life is still going thanks to efforts like these.
If possible, please learn phone modding and get a bit tech savvy with custom os, maybe even give linux a try, learn how to install f droid and install super lightweight and privacy respecting apps, use firefox or similar to get an adblocker, the world of tech can be way way less resource and money intensive than you think

I'm two seconds away from nuking my file system altogether and reinstalling Kubuntu, or just throwing in the towel and going back to Windows with my tail between my legs.
Can't get past the login screen. Put in password, everything freezes. Try logging in through recovery mode, get past login screen but now I get a black screen and a mouse cursor.
Systemctl says my page file didn't load but I can't tell if I should trust that because I'm only able to access my console through recovery mode. Also I've officially run out of spoons to deal with this.
Windows never did this shit to me. I've been enjoying Linux, but when it fails, IT FAILS.

Vision Quests for the Neue Geo-Syndie ("Black Bear" WIP global theme refs for KDE Plasma 5 & its alternative Liquid shell)
The couple initial assets here are the ones to emulate the closest... enjoy!
The sheet right below was AI-generated by me, should be quite useful to get inspiration from...
Some more AI-generated colored modules...
Again, some more themed assets, this time for avatars, icons & other symbolic Plasmoid widgets...
Previous desktop dark theme I made that felt close to my objective...
Yeah, I really like the retro raster aliased look of such...
My very own hand-drawn draft?
Previous style guide still useful, among other resources
(if needed, you can browse my blog archive, especially for what is under the "maskoch", "maskutchew", "customization" & "16^12" hashtags)
