@fujoshi why wouldn't it look decent in widescreen? nextstep itself (including 4.0pr1 mecca) is practically optimal under it, and I keep thinking one of the main cornerstones of a theoretical "ideal 90s linux e16 rice box" would be a sgi 1600sw, which has a native resolution of 1600x1024 (lol)

@allison my rice of it is kinda fucked up (running plasma so that may be the issue)

Yeah that sounds like the problem, Qt & friends aren't the best for this exercise. In terms of accurate recreations of period environments on modern Linux, https://github.com/comdlg32/ice2k is probably the best I've seen?

@fujoshi plasma IMHO is excellent as a general purpose environment but caring about things about hidpi scaling inherently means that the theming will be compromised compared to older standards where you could exactly set pixel dimensions. we'll never have something like kaleidoscope again.

@fujoshi (also fun aside about kaleidoscope, the guy who made it also made the crux theme for gtk and gnome while employed at eazel before eazel went bust)

@mischievoustomato@tsundere.love @allison@hidamari.apartments @fujoshi@social.xenofem.me thats the point. old pixel themes aren't gonna look good when scaled

@mischievoustomato @anemone @fujoshi that's exactly what I'm saying, it has good support for hidpi and one of the tradeoffs of that is that the theming support is compromised compared to older systems which didn't have it (peak linux theming era was gtk1/gtk2 and the equivalent qts)

@mischievoustomato @anemone @fujoshi say what you will, I'll keep pursuing my crisp pixel interfaces

@allison@hidamari.apartments @mischievoustomato@tsundere.love @fujoshi@social.xenofem.me kinda pointless when you can't see the pixels on modern displays

@mischievoustomato@tsundere.love @allison@hidamari.apartments @fujoshi@social.xenofem.me i have a 4k 32" display and its okay but i can still see the pixels slightly. 6k would probably be optimal for this sized screen

@anemone @allison @fujoshi i don't have a very good vision (i don't have one eye as well lole), but it's good enough that I can notice when stuff isn't right. Plus I used a classmate's macbook air at university for a couple mmoemnts and I noticed how much sexier font rendering is on there. MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN
