do you have any specific quirk about wallpapers?

I’ve used plain black as my phone wallpaper for most of its lifetime, because every time I tried a wallpaper I just find them distracting and made icons harder to identify

recently I tried to use some just to not get dragged into the “wow” trend and make my phone feel shiny and novelty again, no need to change

but it’s so hard to find those that don’t trigger my brain and make me want to go back to black!

I mostly feel comfortable with low contrast, abstract, plain or gradient ones so it’s an actual “background” image that looks good but doesn’t compete for my attention, however SEO favours really detailed and complex ones

do you feel the same?

    Always plain black for me. My lock screen on my phone was for years as well, but now is a picture of my wife and I.
