Now, I'm not a Graphic Designer / Artist. Just a user who needs to get work
done in a productive manner.
The change from KDE4/Oxygen to Plasma5/Breeze was a seismic shift.
For some it was a shift too far. Yes, oxygen icons are still available, and
indeed I believe you yourself are maintaining them. For that I, and I'm sure
others, are thankful.
One of the problems with oxygen though, is it's lack of full integration with
plasma 5. Plasmoids for example still look "wrong" when using the Oxygen Look
& Feel; that I suspect is something unlikely to change. Limited resources in
terms of manpower (should that be people power?), coupled with the (it seems)
probable believe there is no real demand for oxygen any longer, it's not
"modern", it's not "arty".
Ultimately though, the choice is with the user, if one has the ability, open
source allows you to make your own contributions. Most users are not in that
fortunate position, myself included. We use what we are given, if we don't
like it nothing forces us to use it. Users do however get frustrated,
sometimes that frustration is vented on developers. But, if you create
anything, no matter what, and put it into the public domain, then one must take
the brickbats as well as the bouquets.
