!gaming is a community for gaming noobs through gaming aficionados. Unlike !games, we don’t take ourselves quite as serious. Shitposts and memes are welcome.
Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month.
Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

On my Mac, I just use whatever the default static wallpaper is. Or I pick one of theirs. I always have widgets covering my wallpaper and I don't know how to easily see what it is (short of → Settings → Wallpaper), but I think it's like a forest/hills. On my MacBook it's a lake.
On my phone, I have a Star Trek theme. LCARS (the OS on Next Generation) lock screen, and one of the ships (I think it's Discovery, I never really look that closely at it) warping up toward the top with the trails down between the icons.
I mostly don't care what the wallpaper is because I never look at it, but I'm too proud to just have it black (nothing there). I know that's an option on Windows (no wallpaper, and there's a setting for the desktop colour), but I'm not sure about Mac or iOS.
I almost envy people who have "cool" wallpapers (my wife has a bunch) but I mostly can't be arsed. Like... I wouldn't mind having digital frames with rotating wallpapers or fan art or whatever. But my desktop? It's a workspace and I have work (or "work") covering it all the time.
