I use the Yaru Theme on Arch Linux GNOME 50, Ambiance on Fedora 33, and Ambiance on Ubuntu 10.04 and 11.04

Apart from the fact that your themes look really cool (I love the nostalgic Ubuntu themes), what compels you to stay on such old versions of Fedora and Ubuntu? Aren’t you concerned about, e.g., security?

The first thing I do on a new installation is install the traditional mate themes.
I should add I use the MATE TraditionalOK theme on all my computers.

I use tweaked native Mate theme
The following theme looks interesting, but I have not tried it yet

Look at my laptop, Intel Atom N450, 2gb Ram, Intel GMA 3150 and 5400rpm HDD, I use an old Distro because my laptop is not strong enough to run modern distros, including Latest XFCE, Latest MATE, and others. Why didn’t I choose a lightweight DE on Arch Linux? Because I really like GNOME, especially since I’m a developer who creates applications focused on GNOME and Libadwaita
And I really like the old GNOME, that’s why I use the old distro, I can say that GNOME 3.38 Fedora 33 is smoother than XFCE 4.20 on Xubuntu 26.04

Ambiant-MATE-Dark on pretty much everything.
I haven’t found anything better suited for me yet.

Fair enough—I would’ve also said a recent distro with MATE but it seems you’ve already figured out the best configuration for your setup.

Interesting, what is the name of the distro?

Oh, sorry, I wasn’t talking about any specific distribution, but for example, on an old Pentium laptop, I’ve got Debian + MATE running.

Hahaha, My GPU is too old, there is a problem on my laptop, Debian 13+MATE runs on Software Rendering, so I reinstalled it with Debian 12+MATE, finally I can use GPU Acceleration
