1/n

now shows the configured desktop background in the overview:

Note that some of the background files shipped for desktops as jxl can be slow to resize on slower hardware as they are meant for desktop screen size.

It is recommended to use a proper size on e.g. the PinePhone as it can otherwise consume significant CPU resources after login.

@phosh thanks for the end of the year present phosh team :)

@phosh wow very nice the two empty buttons could be used for left right cursor buttons

@phosh Why does it use CPU resources? The GPU can scale and render it without breaking a sweat.

@phosh I really like the icons used in all Linux based systems for mobile devices, the main difference being is that they are not symmetrical icons like: all squares or all circles.

@phosh As a GNU/Linux superb lover and daily user I'll be quite probably using this on my phones too in the near future 😅👌 marvelous! Keep it up!

@almanu @phosh Same! What device are you planning on using? I will probably be using a OnePlus 6 when I can get around to buying one. It has good support for Mobian and some other distros while being quite powerful.

@libadwaita @phosh oof that depends on what I count on atm haha I have a Logic phone rn but probably I'll get a new phone with better camera when I move and then I'll probably be installing Phosh

@almanu @phosh as far as I'm aware the OnePlus 6 does not have working camera support quite yet, but for me that doesn't really matter since I take more pictures with my DSLR than anything else. Camera is actually one of the very few things that doesn't work yet on the OnePlus 6, they are very cheap.

As far as devices with working cameras, the PinePhone Pro is probably the best. You could also try a Droidian device, or possibly see if you can get Droidian running on your own device.

@libadwaita @phosh interesting, imma save that toot. Nice one I appreciate the recommendation. Btw I love ur username loool

@phosh why would you fix a caterpillar?

@phosh This looks so amazing 😍! Can't wait to try it on my #Librem5 For now I am stuck on v0.32.0
