@nixCraft I can only remember back then average users didn't even use workspaces.

@nixCraft Yes, I remember that effect, but didn't really use multiple desktops back then. But the wobbly windows were fun :D

@nixCraft I first used it years ago with a Knoppix live CD and it was very cool. Later, Nova Launcher on Android offered the same experience.

@nixCraft Cube by compiz. Not only old one users, because it is still very much present and available in lots of distributions. Even KDE actually has it, but in a little different form. As same as another very popular feature - "wobbly windows" effects.

@nixCraft No fake water effect at the bottom of the screen. Weak sauce.

@nixCraft That right there is still on of my favorite theme. Bluecruve.

@nixCraft Compiz fusion! I think it still exists in some places

edit: yes! https://fedoraproject.org/spins/mate/

@nixCraft also worth noting KDE Plasma 6 has a lot of great effects built in, it's very much worth checking out the store where you can find some amazing animations for opening/closing windows, I'm a big fan of the "Glitch" for example https://store.kde.org/p/2133844
