Asking because I only recently realized that I’ve been running KDE default wallpapers for over a year without noticing. I’m also debating whether to switch to something more “fun” and aligned to my hobbies
As far as I’m aware, popular OSes/DEs tend to have a healthy selection of high-quality default wallpapers, and some OSes/DEs even have wallpaper “shops”. So I’d like to ask what you all use! If you are using a custom one, love to hear where/why you got it.
If you want to share your custom wallpaper feel free to
Edit: thank you all! I didn’t realize how many of you use solid colors… as well as the number of people who don’t think too much about wallpapers since you don’t look at it often (frankly the same for me). For the ones who shared: thanks a ton. Also fun story: there was a recurring joke on r/Unixporn about anime wallpapers but I guess it is not remotely as popular outside of the ricing community


at work, on my main desktop, I use a picture I took on vacation (of Scotland)
otherwise I have to use a lot of servers so I color code the desktops to remind myself of what systems it is or how critical it is. Using red or uncomfortable colors on systems that are critical keeps me from making mistakes on them.
At home on my laptop, I have been using the KDE OneStandsOut wallpaper for a few years https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace-wallpapers/-/blob/master/OneStandsOut/contents/screenshot.jpg?ref_type=heads
its simple and nice to look at for a few seconds when I am actually looking at the desktop loading after a reboot or something
Red on admin/root desktop was something I learned back in the days from SUSE Linux or Debian…. And it has stuck with me too.
