Hey everyone I was wondering how do you spice up your cursors, icons, themes, etc., In particular for desktop environments such as XFCE, Mate. Are there any good repositories to use?

I’ve taken a look at a number of apparently cloned sites like “xfce-look.org”, “kde-look.org”, “gnome-look.org”, but while they seem to show a wide offering of themes, it seems downloading from them is blocked via uBO since it reports a “fp2” fingerprinting script without which apparently downloads are not enabled. Are those sites trustworthy? They seem to be associated to a “OpenDesktop” initiative of which the only reputation I can find is that they were added to EasyList Privacy blocklist.

If there are other alternative hubs or repos from which to theme a distro (as agnostically as posisble) that’d be welcome info.

Cheers. Thanks. Et cetera.

    Oh? Is that tool desktop-agnostic? It’d be interesting to be able to download those themes considering ATM I’ve tried to adapt the block in uBO in various ways but apparently the site will resist any attempt until uBO is fully disabled, which is a permission I don’t grant nilly-willy to websites, not even purported FOSS ones.

    Or if you have a uBO rule that allows downloading from those sites, they might be of interest to share.
