Hello everyone, how many of you love the macOS High Sierra theme? Don’t be shy, put your hands up! *Raises his hand* The theme is stunning and it does make some of us Linux lovers a bit envious if not borderline jealous but luckily, someone has ported the stunning High Sierra theme to work perfectly on your Ubuntu 18.04, 18.10, and 16.04 computer.
Today we will highlight the new macOS High Sierra theme by B00merang-Project. They(or him?) is also responsible for creating the underrated Windows 10 theme for Ubuntu that I think people really need to take a second look at, what is there not to like about it? Anyway, this macOS theme is high quality and it even comes complete with the icons, folders and the other necessary graphics that make it look almost exactly like the real life macOS theme! It’s quite a good job they did on this theme and I know a lot of you will love it. I have been using for about a week now and so far I can’t complain, no big bugs or anything like that so it’s stable to use in a working environment.
