Lively Wallpaper (github.com)

Certainly not an essencial app, butt anyway cool to customize the Desktop, it permits to use animated, interactive or parallax backgrounds for our desktop. Capanle also to convert in seconds normal images in parallax images. Lightweight (depends naturally which image and videos we use as background, but the app put it in pause when we have an fullscreen app or game working.

Stumbled across this about a month ago and since i am not installing steam on my work computer to the desktop application, wallpaper engine, going, i found this. Also doesnt need admin to install if using microsoft apps.

Love it so far, using the matrix background expanded across my 3 screens.

That's cool but I never get the obsession with cool wallpaper and desktop widgets. I only see my wallpaper when I'm not doing anything. I'm not going to install software and configure it so that I can not do anything better.

Nice alternative to Wallpaper engine I guess.

Wish there was something like this but native to Linux.
