I was watching the Explaining Computers youtube channel. He's just done
a video on twisteros, a very fancy derivative of Raspios. I've just set
it up on one of my Pi 4s without too much trouble and it works well.
Watch the video and see if you want to try it.

Check "leepspvideo" and "Jeff Geerling" on Youtube. They have almost
daily Raspberry videos

I like Twister... but its main feature is box86, so you can run x86 Linux apps
on a Raspberry Pi.

I still think Rasberry Pi OS runs better on the Pi... and you can install a few
apps to get some of the features of Twister. IMO, add Commander Pi, Pi Apps,
Pi-KISS and any theming you want and most users would be better served.

I think a lot of Twister users DON'T use the box86 functions - not saying that
you don't, and not saying that Twister is no good. Just mentioning that most of
the oooooohh's and ahhhhhh's of Twister is just the add-ons they have
installed.

I do like the Win10 theme, but... I just popped it into my Raspberry Pi OS
setup. Anyway, just food for thought. Glad you like it - I do have a Twister OS
SD Card. For running x86 games.
