From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

So I've been customizing my system for a few days now to look more like a mac-book, and I've found this program called "plank", which is supposed to be a mac-like dock for Linux. However, it doesn't operate or function correctly, as I use fedora KDE Spin. I was trying to install Pantheon, but I don't think its supported anymore, or at least the package does not exist.

No match for argument: pantheon desktop
Error: Unable to find a match: pantheon desktop

I would love to know if anyone has any ideas to make my system look like MacOS, without a massive headache.

Haven't used Plank in ages, I highly doubt it works under Wayland. I recommend getting Latte Dock instead, and you could use a macOS icon theme to go with it.

Latte Dock

I already got the theming for macos done from the KDE store app lol, I'll try Latte then, and see if that works.

Keep in mind that Latte Dock is no longer maintained.

Glad to know, thanks for the heads up.

When I went to the repo, I didn’t see any message saying it was unmaintained.
