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?

    I like having a work of art, usually in a simplistic style, because so much of life is plain black, or grey, already … I want colour and joy in things that I look at regularly.

    I also stickerbomb the backs of my phones too, and then add a clear cover :-)
