First of all, I apologize for not answering your specific question about themes but.

To be honest, instead of struggling with themes on XFCE or MATE, you should consider that there isn't much difference in performance right now between those and Cinnamon or KDE Plasma. Both have a workflow very similar to Windows 10 out of the box, which would make the transition much more painless for your mom.

I highly recommend Linux Mint (Cinnamon Edition); it's the gold standard for 'it just works' and feels like Windows 10 without needing extra themes. If you prefer Plasma, Kubuntu or Tuxedo OS are excellent, stable, and beginner-friendly options that run great on older hardware without being 'bleeding edge' or unstable.

    This update includes window sync and other nice improvements! Window sync is a way to keep your windows organized across multiple monitors. If you want a blank window, you can do so by using opt+cmd+N (for mac), ctrl+alt+N (for linux) and alt+N (for windows). Enjoy!
    
    You can read more about window sync in our documentation here

        Added
        Updated to Firefox 147.0 and 147.0.1
        Added
        Merged window syncing! Now, when you open multiple windows of Zen, they will stay in sync with each other. Changes made in one window will automatically reflect in all other open windows. (Experimental, some features such as glance still can't sync yet.)
        Added
        Session restore now remembers which space each window was in.
        Added
        Closing a tab will now focus the last accessed tab instead of the tab to the bottom
        Added
        Tabs can now have custom icons (set via right-click context menu).
        Added
        Implemented new tab drag-and-drop system, making it easier to rearrange tabs specially when multiple layers of folders are involved.
        Added
        You can now collapse all pinned tabs by clicking on the space name below the essentials.
        Added
        Before, only pinned tabs could be renamed; now, any tab can be renamed via right-click context menu or double-clicking the tab title.
        Added
        New MacOS profiles will now have 'switch to N space' keyboard shortcuts filled by default (control+number).
        Added
        Improved native menu bar integration on MacOS (and Windows/Linux if applicable), adding a 'Spaces' menu item for easier access to space-related actions.
        Added
        Enabled de-cluttering preference for context menus.
        Added
        WebGPU support is now enabled for devices with Apple Silicon processors on all supported macOS versions.
        Added
        Improved video playback performance on systems with AMD GPUs by enabling zero-copy playback for hardware-decoded video where supported, bringing them to parity with Intel and NVIDIA GPUs.
        Added
        Zen now supports the Safe Browsing V5 protocol and is migrating from Safe Browsing V4 to the local list mode of Safe Browsing V5 protocol.
        Added
        Added an 'Essentials DnD Promo' card, shown when dragging a tab to the top of the sidebar if there are no essentials.
