i've always felt as though decorating and customizing ones desktop has become a lost art - despite my lack of memory of doing that in my own child- / teenhood... i am deeply fascinated by how people used to make unique desktops.

below you'll find some rather ancient examples, mostly from flickr, and for now, almost exclusively linux examples. i want to find some windows screenshots as well though!

while i personally don't like most of the visual aesthetics on r/unixporn (or atleast, wouldn't customize my own pc in such a way), i still highly recommend looking there as well if you need inspiration!!! people are very dedicated to making their desktop look cool :)
