What would be the conclusion of this topic?

It seems there is support behind this, especially on Linux, where the new GTK and it's themes do not play nice with Java.

Is there someone willing to implement this feature?

If anyone would be interested, probably the best place to implement is in: nb/o.n.upgrader

Hi,

So, now we've branched off 12.6, and we know that the next release
will be NetBeans 13, require JDK 11+, and hopefully ship with nb-javac
included .. is it time we changed (improved?! :-) ) how NetBeans looks
out of the box too?

Should we consider FlatLaf (light or dark) as the default look and
feel from NetBeans 13?

This is partly prompted by working through a few JIRA tickets with
HiDPI issues resolved by switching, a few snarky social media comments
about NetBeans' appearance I've seen recently where the go-to replies
seem to just be to tell people to switch to FlatLaf .. and the fact
I'm constantly switching even when debugging because the GTK theme on
Ubuntu is borderline unusable.

So, what do you think?  For or against?  Maybe also add what you do
use, and light or dark, in a reply - it might make some sense if we
defaulted to what the majority of us use in practise?

Best wishes,

Neil
