Reminds me a little bit of Solaris for some reason

It looks a lot like gnome 2. That was the last version informed by human factors research and user studies. Sun performed the research.

It’s not a coincidence that things like mint and cinnamon are still being maintained.

		Ironically it's the latest version of Plasma KDE using Qt 6, took a lot of time to port it from 5

I can see what you are getting at. Reminds me a bit of their GTK theme Nimbus for the Gnome based Java Desktop System but also Bluecurve of Gnome 2 with Bitstream Vera. Perhaps it just looks dated?

		Yea maybe I asked AI and it said the reason why is both Sun’s design and the Nokia design are both “a neutral neo-grotesque foundation, refined contrast, and consistent spacing”

OpenSolaris looked great, IMO. OpenIndiana looks the same (no surprise here).
