    It’s kinda weird how much of a performance difference the wallpaper makes. I once installed Linux mint on an old laptop and the perf of managing windows and some other things was terrible until I changed the wallpaper to a plain color.

    Meanwhile windows will still lag switching between desktops if they have different wallpapers, even on high end computers
