Although for many, a default wallpaper is not a big deal and when installing a system they change it immediately, for others choosing the image that will decorate all the installations of that version is a dilemma.
In the case of the KDE desktop environment, a competition is held to determine which image will be the default wallpaper for each new version, and This time the background that we will see in KDE Plasma 5.16 has been decided.
In the competition carried out in the community forums, the participants were able to send their proposals in high quality for the consideration of the jury, the winner is also credited with a Linux Slimbook PC.
Plasma 5.16 Wallpaper
Today it has been announced that the winner of this competition is the artist Santiago Cézar with his image "Ice Cool", and you only need to see the image to understand the title.
