After I updated Kubuntu to the latest version this happened. Why?

Gtk2 probably.....
Use QT-Version of Lazarus
One System to rule them all, One Code to find them,
One IDE to bring them all, and to the Framework bind them,
in the Land of Redmond, where the Windows lie

Code is like a joke: If you have to explain it, it's bad

What happened ? Looking like windows 95 ? Is it qt(4,5,6) or gtk2 IDE ? Righ click inside About lazarus form, copy info and paste here.

Update Its okay now I fixed it changing from GTK to QT6. If you just install Lazarus IDE files from the Lazarus IDE website in Latest version of Kubuntu, you'll get ancient looks. I reinstall Lazarus IDE from the sudo command in Terminal though it has 4.4 IDE only not latest version of IDE

That's because gtk2 is still default ws on linux, try gtk3 from lazarus trunk.
