It’s pretty easy! This is my desktop right now. I do like it a liiitle less gaudy and my mac use at work means that I prefer my window controls on the left instead of the right.
Have a look at Wayfire. It’s a Wayland compositor that implements a lot of the compiz effects/plugins. I recently found that but haven’t tried it myself as I don’t really care about wobbly windows and cubes as much as I did 15+ years ago when I first tried compiz as a teenager :D
Can we return to Aero? Is that too much to ask?
I’ve been long enough on this place that I know you can get similar effects on Linux
(not mine, found on image search)
this is the most accurate one I know of https://gitgud.io/wackyideas/aerothemeplasma
This is the kind of thing I had in mind!
Aero is more than just the blur effect, modern OS’s still have that in spades.
i want to install plasma just for this now

Second picture theme is called: Clearglass. Icon: Glass icons by Palko drawing.
…For anyone interested
Skip aero. Let’s go back to compiz fusion and deskcubes.
New KDE brought the cube back!
I’m rocking a desktop octagon with two monitors with all the fancy window animations on and still using less ram that windows on idle lol.
