If you’re looking to downgrade your Ubuntu computer to macOS Mojave, there are a few things you can do. First, you can install the macOS Mojave beta software. This will give you access to some of the new features in the upcoming release, but it won’t work with older versions of Ubuntu. Next, you can change the default wallpaper on your computer to a dark mode wallpaper. This will make Ubuntu look more like macOS Mojave. Finally, you can enable dark mode in your system preferences.
If you’re a Linux user who likes the look of the dark mode coming in macOS Mojave, you’re in luck: there’s a GTK theme just for you.
The theme is available on Gnome-Look.org alongside several other macOS inspired themes. You’re looking for the one titled McOS-MJV-Dark-mode, but feel free to download more if you think you might want to switch it up later.
Installing is a little tricky: you need to create a .themes directory in your home folder, then extract the folder in the downloaded archive into that folder. Next you need to install Gnome Tweaks in the Ubuntu Software Store, which you can use to change the theme. You can also use Gnome Tweaks to move the buttons to the left side of the window, where they belong. Fight me.
Our thanks to Joey Sneddon at OMG Ubuntu for pointing this theme out to us. It’s not a perfect match for Mojave’s dark mode, but it’s a lot better than the terrible Windows Dark Mode.
