One "problem" I always face when convincing people about FreeCAD wonders is the GUI and how it looks. By default FreeCAD doesn't look the same in Linux, Windows or macOS so the very first experience when starting it up it not the same and usually feels "ugly". Actually, new users don't know that they can deeply change the feel and look of it but they complain about the "not professional look" of FreeCAD.
Of course, I always show them how to change the stylesheets, change default colors for background and so on, but they are right: it's not easy for newbies to go to several Preferences places and change colors, etc and tweak it with good design principles so that FreeCAD feels smooth and beautiful.
My intention with this thread is not to start discussing about it, after sharing my thoughts I just want to share with you my personoal "GUI theme", the one I use everyday and which I'm pretty happy with. Maybe it helps you or future users to improve the experience while using this great software
