There is a guy who needs arrange by penis.
My desktop is my castle!
I think my mom’s desktop has overflown onto this poor fellow’s.
Um hi.
This could be a picture of me. It’s classic ADHD desktop, with things dragged ‘for later’.
Later isn’t today.
I have a script that auto erases my desktop every reboot.
in my case i just have twenty different folders all for files “for later”, with a datestamp. oldest is probably around 2021?
actually twenty is very generous, probably more like a hundred, all across different categories, with different and unique and sometimes duplicated files.
People actually use their desktops?

Gross. My home PCs have just the recycle bin. My work mac nothing (except the brief moment screenshots get put there because before I move them someone at Apple is a monster)
You know you can change where screen shots go on Mac right?
I thought I looked at some point, but I might be misremembering. I hadn’t used a mac in literally 20+ years when I started at this job (and hate using mac, but that’s another story), so I might also have missed something obvious. Looking in the settings now, though, nothing comes up for screenshot, screen shot, or screen capture (aside from keyboard shortcut settings).
When you press command shift 4, there will be an on screen menu that you can change the location of a screenshot
I’m a command+shift+5 type of person, but you are correct that it is there. Why on earth is it not in the actual settings app?! Thanks!
Yeah, my GNOME desktop on Linux is just a picture. Apps, and files are indexed, you hit the “windows” key, commonly accessed apps are on a popup dock, as you start to type you get an immediate list of matches, whether its apps, filenames or file contents.
Never needed to add shortcuts
I have the same setup on Nobara with kRunner.
Mac has spotlight and it works pretty well. Windows start menu has similar functionality as well.
Windows indexing is garbage: if I type the name of an app in the search it can’t find stuff that has been installed, and sometimes it likes less keystrokes, as in exc will show excel, exce will remove excel as a choice. And file indexing (even though I have the folders added to search indexing) just doesn’t find stuff, its basically a directory crawler. Where on Linux it’s instant
I had a professor in university who didn’t use the grid layout and even had icons overlapping each other to fit more stuff on the desktop. It was wild

I fucking hate that that is a thing that can be done. I’ve seen it a few times and it drives me crazy
Eww, windows?
IRL Ragebait
Doesn’t have to be, I know plenty of people who use their desktop as their file system.
The best part of multiple desktops is increased file storage limits!
Lmao I gotta try this with a coworker, they are always complaining they have too many files on their desktop (a problem they create themselves)
I got a jew laptop at work recently and the IT guy asked about Desktop icons. I told him I turn them off. He told me about our CFO who apparently keeps every file in Desktop. I can’t imagine.
What’s a jew laptop? Does it wear a yarmulka? 😁
I use arch, oy vey!
They’ve got chutzpah

I use my desktop basically as a temporary directory. I also have icons turned off so I don’t have to see that clutter lol.
I did like putting a bunch of shortcuts to files and directories on my desktop, back when I still used that kind of UI.
Guys it’s been 2 hours somebody ask him already
Nah, my setup is actually a secret.
Plot twist, its a wallpaper
I actually made a wallpaper like this by moving icons and screenshotting until the whole screen was filled. Was funny trying to figure out which shortcuts were the real ones. Now I have enough stuff that I don’t need to fake it. The trick is to have everything important in the taskbar, the rest is just there to fill space.
And the icon names are the lyrics to a specific song
he paid for entire screen and he’s gonna use entire screen
So, you just woke up and chose violence?
On a Sunday morning?
He had them all arranged by penis until web dude came along
