Some of the nightlies are actually ahead of ondsel in features actually. But while you can get close, the theme and UI changes don’t work very well in freecad. You might be able to write some plugins to do it but I haven’t seen them.
Yeah similar but when I’ve tried a lot of the UI ends up looking wrong. Bad font or UI colors, etc.
Not hating on freecad, I like it and they’re working hard, just want to make clear it’s not fair to suggest a normal person could make it look the same.
Additional note. It’s a weird discussion. My understanding is development is flowing back and forth with the intention of ondsel being mostly a set of pro cloud plugins. Use what you like today because you can swap tomorrow.

I think if you install enough plugins you can get that similar experience from freecad

I haven’t used ondsel myself but can’t you configure modernui to look similar?
