Hi everyone! Hope you're all having anice life and a wonderful 2020! 
I never gave too much thought whether or not a theme was/is still maintained, turns out the one I used, arc theme, hasn't been updated since 2017, just as adapta hasn't been updated since 2018 either, that being said I've never had any kind of issue nor I've noticed any impact in system's peformance, however, I do wonder what the implications might be, is it really that bad having an "out of date" theme? I guess if it gets 5 years with no updates at all then it might be a good time to change it, but then, how does exactly a theme have influence in systems' performance? I mean, can an "out of date" theme slow down the system? I guess it affects the looks and probably some buttons like "ok", "cancel", "close", "open" might not work as expected, am I right? Other than that, what are the undesired effects one can expect?

My computer is a Lenovo Thinkpad W520, a powerhouse with an i7-2720, 32 GB RAM, two fairly big SSDs, fingerprint reader, USB3, eSata and a color calibration tool - you name it, this was built for photo and video editing.
The printers are a Samsung M288 printer/scanner and a Brother MFC 6490CW2.
Recently I installed Ubuntu 18 LTS and ran into several problems - the machine did not boot properly, sound did not work and more, printer installation felt like a dentist appointment, Wifi was dead slow, Bluetooth did not work and a few more. I could fix some of that but it was no fun at all. So, I am ready to quit the "normal" Ubuntu world.
**As LL is based on Ubuntu, too, do I have to expect the same problems?
Did any of you ever successfully install this OS on a similar machine? **
Intended use:
1. Video editing with Shotcut
2. Audio editing
3. Photo editing
4. organization of media files
5. Standard tasks like web browsing, writing letters, spreadsheets etc.
6. Maybe, maybe use Wine or similar to work with the construction software SketchUp or Vectorworks plus a renderer or so.

Adapta is no longer maintained so we need to find something that goes perfectly with Papirus Icon theme.
A theme that has been maintained at least once in the last 3 months. Needs to have a light and dark theme.
Preferably GTK 3. Please provide a direct link if you are going to suggest a theme. Thank you.

hello.
i am facing two issues, appreciate if someone could help.
issue one, update: getting follow messages while updating
E: The repository 'http://deb.leap.se/client buster Release' does not have a Release file.
N: Updating from such a repository can't be done securely, and is therefore disabled by default.
N: See apt-secure(8) manpage for repository creation and user configuration details.
issue two, upgrade: getting message notifying i am already on latest version (4.6) while version 4.8 is available.
Thanks.
