How to get live wallpaper on Zorin OS: Gnome 43.9

[superover2]

Hello, I'm superover2, a zorin os user,
I want to know on how to use a live wallpaper in Zorin OS, I want a smooth, coozy little vanilla-gnome looking desktop, and live wallpapers are it. But i don't wanna have a live wallpaper because i think it'll break the GNOME Shell.

Are you asking about its safety before getting one?

For this you could simply turn off the Gnome Extensions.

For the Live Wallpaper: You can find a Program in the Gnome Software Store called Hidamari. With that you can set up Live Wallpapers. But it have to be mp4 Files if I'm not wrong.

I tested it in the Past and it works but it needs a bit more System Performance/Ressources. It is a Live Wallpaper and not a simple Background Picture. Please keep that in Mind.

Yes. I am asking about it's safety.

I wouldn't go on so lightly after what I read.

First attempt of a dynamic wallpaper turns to a possible break of my system

Hello, Zorin community I have just installed Linux for the first time, and more specific Zorin OS Core 16.1. In my first attempt to make a dynamic wallpaper I used a youtube tutorial for instructions and when I went to test the new dynamic wallpaper for the first time it gave me an error similar to a Windows blue screen and said log out and try again but every time I log in, the same message appears. Question: Is there a way to restore the original wallpaper through the terminal?

Other requests about live wallpapers here on Zorin Forum mention minor issues, not system breakages. If you anyway want to install a live wallpaper app please check its website or its source code page to verify if there are serious issues reports.
