I miss this era so much. > Turns out this action didn't have a keyboard shortcut until Mac OS X? Didn't know that! Edit your Finder and/or System with ResEdit and you can add or change any keyboard shortcuts you want.

(author of the blog post here) Oh! I didn't know that, do you have guidance on that (i.e: what specific resource types needs editing in ResEdit)? I wouldn't mind getting rid of QuicKeys and going with a native solution haha.

Great work! I'm wondering if you could leverage DiscMaster or my Macintosh Magazine Media collection to hunt for themes? You'd just search for the type or creator code. Not that you're short of themes. I did this sort of search recently for tilesets for MaciGame and found over 350 plus I am notified of any new additions thanks to DiscMaster search RSS https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43551222

Earlier quoted context omitted.

In the 00s, I remember leaning on LiteStep and Stardock (I think?) for theming rather than anything specific to windows

Those days were pretty cool. I think that whole scene is pretty much dead for Windows now? Not a shell replacement, but I guess rainmeter is still going it looks like? But not sure if any of the shell replacements are still around or even a possibility/thing for W11 these days...

Window blinds is still maintained and I use it every day.
