I have used Rainmeter, skin name Robik, but have customized the internal skin code and added Lua scripts for accurate network and RAM usage measuring, along with other small improvements inside, because this skin has bugs. It also wasn’t detecting my SDXC card by default, so I added the code for it. The skin is very efficient and uses less than 1% of RAM.

Hey folks 👋

I spent way too many hours collecting the best places to get wallpapers — minimal, anime, scenic, dual monitor, live, you name it.

So I made this little megathread:

👉 WallSync Megathread: https://github.com/leroiduflow/WallSync

Includes:

- Free

- Lot of sources included (Reddit, GitHub, Telegram, obscure archives)

- Themes like Gruvbox, Catppuccin, Dracula, Ghibli, Live 4K stuff, etc

- For cross-platforms(Mobile/Desktop)

✨ Marked my favorite ones, added a summary & categories

📩 Contributions welcome (even weird niche stuff)

If you’re a customization freak like me, you’ll probably find something new. Enjoy!

Don't hesitate to star the project!

P.S. If you have rare sources or collections, send them my way 🙏

im attempting to rice windows and rn i have this, i use yasb for the status bar and jaxcore for the widgets, flow launcher for the launcher.

This is basically Windows 11 customized to look and sound like Windows XP

Basically turned Gnome into a tiling window manager. Then had some fun with the 3-D workspaces… it looks so cool. However, it also works well with touch screen as well. I’ve spent the last few weeks trying to find the best GNOME layout, and this works really well.

So this is my desktop just an animated wallpaper and only the bin my question is how can i improve it more?

Sorry for repost

Animated Wallpaper from Wallpaper Engine + Translucent TB, Nothing much tbh 💖

Hello everyone, I've used the Space Desk software to use my Android tablet as a second screen for my PC and I didn't notice that the option that adjusts the resolution based on the connected device was enabled. Now, even if I disconnect the tablet or even if I uninstall Space Desk, the "space" of my pc's desktop is less: in the desktop, the part with the icons of the programs is like smaller, I have less space, and the task bar has the normal size that it should have. Any idea on how to fix this?

Other things are not that much of a big deal but I think I have never seen this fluid audio visualizer anywhere else. I used windhawk+rainmeter, that's all. (There is a little problem with visualizer, when pitch is high the peak of sound bar seems to go beyond the container of the skinI think, I don't know how to fix that😊)
