Thanks to dikasp, MultisampledNight and foobtech for creating these amazing AI-free wallpapers!

Pick your fav!

@postmarketOS Yes!

@postmarketOS i like 'alpen' because it is a reference to alpine :)

@ariadne @postmarketOS alpen is a type of cereal

@noisytoot @postmarketOS yes, but the background is mountains or whatever

@ariadne @postmarketOS that's also why I like it :)

@postmarketOS

Alpen as it looks likely to have the best contrast with the app icons

@ariadne @noisytoot @postmarketOS "Alpen" is also German for "Alps" which I assume is the origin of the name

@aelin @noisytoot @ariadne @postmarketOS "alpen" also exists in English! It was inherited from Dutch a long time ago, but has fallen out of favor in modern times, with "alpine" replacing it. It is only used as an adjective though, usually referring to animals or features of the Alpine mountain range. It is perfectly correct to say "the alpen snow" instead of "the alpine snow", just a bit old-fashioned.

@postmarketOS blossom seems the most unreadable with launcher icons/captions in both light and dark mode, alpen looks fine i guess

@postmarketOS Alpen = Alpine = Pine

I was crazy once.

@postmarketOS blossom got a fun vibe. I love it.

So now we know how to game the wallpaper selection, just name your wallpaper "Alpine" 😁
