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?
There’s another icon called “folder-book”
Ah, didn’t see that one at first. Even that icon is still too different from the others though, using thinner lines and no fill. Hm
filled areas and outlined, simple and chaotic… :-)
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
IIRC they refined the Breeze icons over a LONG period of time to get them to the current state - I’m sure the same will be true here.
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?

I’ll be sticking with papirus.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source; check me out at GitHub.
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
This feels like a step back from what we currently have.
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.
TODO since KDE 3…
Looks good to me
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.
Everything’s previously a file, now everything is a folder
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
It’s deb, not Debian, so I’d assume it’s the icon for .deb files (which are browsable archives).
It folds Debian to prevent Debian prions
Debían no idea… But I guess android could be android studio folders or similar stuff?
Kinda hard to tell with the symbols due to the white on light blue
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.
This is soooo good
They are… certainly icons. I can’t get any more excited than that I’m afraid
yuck
