I like it ok, but there is actually a lot of white space (I think current Linux desktops suffer from this quite a bit, though I haven't used one regularly in >8 years).<p>For example, under "Fresh OS interface", the start menu has lots of extra whitespace around the dividing bar - I think this is a central issue I see repeated everywhere. It looks aesthetically pleasing at first but that space is always dead (is it clickable? I have no idea!). I would encourage you to make it more obvious what the "touch" zones are in the menu, and to maximize them as much as possible. For example on the right side of the menu there shouldn't be any space that isn't clickable.<p>Also, for power users (i.e. Mint) the search bar should be bigger. Even on Windows where it's barely usable because of random Bing and index stuff the search bar is full width on the menu.<p>The "Type here to search" text is too low contrast. My parents would not be able to read that. Similarly, in your screenshots, you should use a boldface font for the terminal text. On my QHD monitor it is difficult to read.<p>There is a desire in Linux desktop enviroments to wrap individual apps in a colored box associated with the app (e.g. Obsidian in light purple, Firefox in dark purple, etc.). I think this is ok but you should consider just using a single block of color like in the Windows taskbar.
