Soooo, yeah. Mine's a bit complicated. Click to embiggen:

https://danq.me/_q23u/2025/12/desktops-combined-mini.png

By way of explanation:

  • I run multiple monitors (too many monitors?). Many are on switches so I can change which computer they're connected to at any given time.
  • I also run multiple computers; I chop and change, but right now I've got Rebel (i7 running Windows), Mora (M4 running MacOS), Foo (M4 running MacOS, belongs to work) and Pia (i5 running Debian Linux) running my desktops; Fox (Xeon running Slackware Linux) is also running but isn't connected to a monitor right now (unless I press a button under my desk to change that)
  • They're all connected into a single "super-desktop" using Deskflow (which I switched to from Barrier, which I switched to from Synergy); I've got one keyboard and mouse that's connected to them all and I just move my cursor to the side of one screen and into the next.
  • I've also got a mini keyboard I've built to act as a control panel spanning them all, so I can simultaneously lock them all when I step away from my desk (also: so I can "teleport" my mouse cursor to a particular computer/monitor if I "lose" it, which happens more often than I'd like to admit)
  • As for my desktops themselves: I keep them pretty minimalist - just a basic wallpaper: my thinking is that if I can see the wallpaper, I'm not really "using" the computer in the first place! Similarly, I've never found a "desktop" a good place to keep icons, so my desktops are usually pretty clear.

I don't know if the above is really interesting (because a "desktop" for me is a bit different than it is for most people) or really boring (because I've put literally no thought into my wallpaper, don't have any icons, etc.)! You tell me!

i like the cassette player ui, its very unique :-o

thanks!! the only reason i decided to beta test aimp is when i was still on windows 10, it quickly became my favorite audio player. it had cool themes/skins & is probably the most feature rich player i've used. however on linux, i found the audio quality to be inconsistent for lack of a better word. it turns out they used to just have the "linux app" be the windows app but shipped with wine. but they're working on better compatibility with linux. so i figured why not give it a shot

Hello all ! I'm back on the forum after a couple of years away ! This is my current desktop  :smile:

https://i.imgur.com/WcfJ31F.jpeg

The post-it note in the corner usually has my to-do list for the day but I didn't think anyone wanted to know what chores I'm up to this Thursday hehe  :ok: 

I'm really keen to get back to being active in my old web spaces, I was saying to a friend yesterday that I find them not just 'nostalgic' but genuinely nourishing to the soul  :transport:

My desktop is pretty barebones since I don't like to put icons on it. I also work with multiple workspaces, so this is just the first one.
I usually have a few shimejis running around too to keep me company :grin:

I don't have anything on my desktop just some project folders and this SICK ASS DRAWING OF A MECHANIC CAT... that as far as I know isn't AI generated. Hopefully.

I decided to make some more minor changes to my desktop, including adding a 3rd panel/taskbar for workspace switching.

Ok so change of plans, changed all my wallpapers and got a new icon theme to hopefully match the Catppuccin Mocha Lavender colors I was going for:

(The original wallpaper art can be found here)
I would really like to add more widgets, but I'm worried about the memory usage...My laptop doesn't have much of it!

This is my current desktop:

https://johnshomepage.neocities.org/JohnsDesktop2026.jpg

I really want to return to a win98 design, though. Up until about 2015, when I had to update, I was using Windows XP, but with the classic design option. When I switched to Windows 10 I decided to "embrace the future", stylewise, but I never really felt at home. Recently, I found this reddit post, so I'll probably try and use that guide to return to the old design.

Kind regards,

I'm on Linux Mint XFCE. I have a custom WM theme and really dig the high-contrast black look. I think it looks sick.

I use two wallpapers: one is from wallpaper engine (the fish one), and the other is just a static wallpaper (its an old photo of 90s Tomorrowland). I used retrobar to change my taskbar to the Vista one, and while not shown, I use open-shell to change my start menu to a Vista-like menu.

i present to thee, my genuine windows 7 setup!

https://files.catbox.moe/6cipjd.PNG

yes, i actually "downgraded" my computer. yes, it still works, and i'm actually having a lot of fun with it. it's here for all my indie web, RSS, CD-burning and retro gaming needs. unfortunately, i don't think the desktop gadgets work anymore :notgood:

This is my main pc and laptop desk tops. I find them quite nice. My pc is currently running windows 11 which I kinda regret updating to but I don't have the time to resolve this issue right now, my laptop is running arch which was also a terrible decision because it has been having network issues so that's fun.
