Here are the icons in the default text editor in Mint Cinnamon. Save is the third from the left (the first 2 are New and Open).

I wouldn't peg that as the save. It looks like a download button. I get it within the context of skumorphism, but that down arrow icon already pretty universally means download.

That's ugly af, and first time I've seen it.

I don't think it's "ugly", but the first time I used that editor (with the new icons, that is--it used to have the traditional icons) I was like "Where's the damn Save button?" I had to hover over them to get the tooltips so I could tell. The Open button is just as bad--it looks like it would be Print!

It may not be aesthetically displeasing, but functionally so.

That screenshot looks disgusting. Unsharp font, irritating icons, weird fontset. Is that GNOME and/or Ubuntu? Terrible.
