Variety wallpaper manager

Posted on by

Via https://vermaden.wordpress.com/2024/01/15/valuable-news-2024-01-15/, there is a link to the Variety wallpaper manager: https://github.com/varietywalls/variety

Available for Linux systems, there is an entry in Freshports for it: https://www.freshports.org/graphics/variety/

I haven’t got access to my FreeBSD system at the moment to try it out, but it looks like there are a nice set of features and sources offered.

Something to check out.

I often post links to things of interest on my Twitter account, but I want to experiment with a different format and through my blog instead. So this serves as the first post of this type and a test of the workflow through Ulysses to WordPress.

I like the CDE look, and this project brings some modern quality-of-life benefits to the mix. I’ve tried it out before, but need to give it a try on my FreeBSD box.

Another window manager I’ve dabbled with briefly. The window tabs sound interesting.
