    Why doesn't Deepin make it so you can shuffle between multiple wallpapers (and the other wallpaper functions found on Windows)?

    I use Variety but think its ugly and overly complicated for newbies. Wouldn't it be great if Deepin simplified and streamlined that functionality in to the OS?

    Thanks for your feedback and suggestion.
    Currently, there will be about 20+ wallpaper in default wallpaper library.
    We have no plan and energy to have wallpaper like Variety.

    Rather focus on 'real' features!
    Wallpaper features are total bs.

    You're not wrong about it being a poor decision to spend resources on.
    I do have a problem with the attitude that front end perfection is unimportant.
    My goal for Linux is to make a better option for non-technical people. (Compared to the OSs there is a wallpaper feature gap)

    Design and UX is Deepin's pride. Still we've made ametuer mistakes like no 12 hour time on the lock screen, fashion mode clock (no date until hover / am illegible), see desktop whilst store images load, no way to have different wallpapers on different monitors or no way to cycle wallpapers.

    As for "real features" like Wayland, they are not going to be part of Deepin.
    I'd call HiDIP another "real feature" which I'm looking forward to.
    I'd be interested to know what your goal is for Deepin Linux and what the next feature needed to get there is?
