I feel like I remember seeing something like this get posted and celebrated in this or some other techie community, and I’m interested in screwing around with other OSes but I can’t remember which one it might be. What’s your favorite 90s-flavored Linux desktop environment / distribution?
Chicago95 XFCE on Debian is my daily driver. Having been a Windows 2000 fanboy, it makes me feel right at home.
The Raleigh GTK theme ported to GTK 3 on XFCE is also a quick and dirty way to get a 90s-esque look: https://github.com/thesquash/gtk-theme-raleigh
For an entire distro, there’s Hot Dog Linux: https://github.com/arthurchoung/HOTDOG
