How to Make Fedora Look Like Ubuntu

 


Ubuntu is known for its theming and Unity-esque appearance.  Fedora's theme has improved over the years, but I still largely prefer the appearance of Ubuntu.  It has a certain Mac like modern look to it and the Ubuntu font is among the best available. 

To make Fedora look like Ubuntu, you can follow these steps:

Open a terminal and run:
sudo dnf install gnome-shell-yaru

Enable the Yaru theme in GnomeTweaks. Install Tweaks first if needed.
sudo dnf install gnome-tweaks


Go to the "Appearance" tab and select the Yaru theme for the Shell, Icons, and Cursor.

Install Gogh for Terminal Theme

Install Gogh from GitHub:
sh git clone https://github.com/Gogh-Co/Gogh.git cd Gogh ./install.sh

Select the "Clone of Ubuntu" profile for your terminal:
gogh clone ubuntu

Apply the theme:
gogh apply ubuntu

Install Ubuntu Fonts:

Download the Ubuntu font family from Google Fonts.

Copy the font files to the fonts directory:
sudo cp -r ~/Downloads/ubuntu-font-family-*.ttf /usr/share/fonts/ sudo fc-cache -f -v

Use Gnome Tweaks to change the default fonts. Go to the "Fonts" tab and set the Interface, Document, and Titlebar fonts to Ubuntu.

Optional: Install Extensions:

You can install extensions like "Dash to Panel" and "Arc Menu" to further customize the look and feel of your desktop.

Comparing Oil Prices

I'm a sucker for spreadsheets.  Its so convenient to lay out the data, compare, and make an informed decision.  Okay.  I probably get carried away with it.  Did I really need to make one to compare oil prices?  Um no.  But I didn't anyway.  My Grand Oil Price Comparison Spreadsheet This comparison includes motor oil, gear oil, and transmission fluid prices I compiled from Amazon, Autozone, Meijer, Menards, Tractor Supply, and Walmart.  These prices are generally for the West Central Indiana market so they may vary. As I have time, I will add other local retailers (Advance Auto, Napa, and O'Reilly).  This is mostly centered around my fleet of Fords.  In our household, we're driving a 1998 F-150 XLT 4.6L 4x4, 2004 Expedition XLT 4.6L 4x4, and a 2010 Expedition EL Eddie Bauer 5.4L 4x4.  I never meant to be a Ford fanboy but its pretty convenient keeping all the same fluids and filters around.  Some oils are marked specifically as ...

Comparing the Pixel 9 Pro XL to OnePlus 12/13

  I've used the Pixel 9 Pro XL and OnePlus 13. My current device is the OnePlus 12. I'm in the US so my experience will probably be slightly different from yours. I've had trouble deciding between devices so I hope this helps. Pixel 9 Much better camera than the OnePlus 12 or 13. They're all capable of taking great photos in ideal conditions (well lit areas). Pixel handles motion much better (even better than the 13). The 13 tends to be really oversaturated and does oversharpen photos. If you want photos that have a ton of "pop" the 13 will be a better choice. Pixel is more consistent and pictures will match reality better (more color accurate). Telephoto is better on the Pixel (if you buy the Pro). Charging is slower. Pixel Pro can hit 45 watts if you have the almost non existent specific charger. Its usually 37 watts. Its easy to forget that OnePlus 6 and 7 series used 30 watt chargers. It'll take over an hour to fully charge the phone. Th...
