    Seems kinda inconsistent. I’m seeing thin lines, thicc lines, flat, 3d, colored and monochrome all together

      The icons don’t all speak the same language, true. Some are way more elaborate and detailed than others, which just makes them look off.

      Maybe the library could be a single book instead of an entire bookshelf, for example?

      Jesus, it’s so inconsistent. I suppose that may be beneficial when looking at all of your folders at a bird’s eye view but my knee jerk reaction isn’t the most positive.

    That looks… really inconsistent

    • Why is the mac icon black while the rest aren’t?
    • Why are the games/downloads icons offset while the rest aren’t?
    • Why are some icons really minimalistic and some really detailed?
    • Why do the colored folders have a line while the rest don’t?
    • Why are java/android/deb/blender colored while the rest aren’t?
    • And why is the black folder blue lol

    These are definitely an improvement over the current icons but while some of the design rules are evident, i think a bit of refining is in order.

    The games and download folders both need a complete redesign as the ignore the design rules that the other folders use, and why are the symbols on each folder white except for the Mac folder?

    Finally designers are realizing it’s not 2013 anymore and nobody liked the Win8 designed-in-powerpoint style.

    Ooh, it really reminds me of newaita reborn which is one of my favorite icon themes. I’m glad they’re making it a little less minimal

    Now KDE needs to implement a consistent design language for its apps, clean up its settings, and have better defaults. Not asking KDE to copy Gnome, just that it needs a lot more work to be palletable to someone using it for the first time.

    Why is everything a folder? What does a debian or android folder do?

      Yes, everything will be a folder in plasma 6, including applications, don’t worry, you I’ll love the new Firefox folder. Its the natural progression of things, don’t try to stop it.

          Look forward to Plasma 6 where everything will be an application. Downloads folder? That’s an application now. A font you just installed? Application. The video you just downloaded? You guessed it

    My opinion, if possible, just use the Papirus icons by default. It does such a great job of being consistent while giving apps their own look.
