   1. Yes, they are technically supported but sourcing material is hard. 2. It does not currently, but I’ll consider adding support for that! Although I feel that it might not work well on macOS Tahoe, which ships with a new ”faded blur” menu

    Apps break on OS updates all the time. I'll do my best to keep supporting this feature. Who knows, maybe Apple will take note and make it a default feature in next macOS?

    I think you will find that if you try to do that, it will actually not work properly. Visiting the lock screen repeatedly will eventually crash the wallpaper extension, producing a black screen. And updating macOS will reset all your wallpa

    That’s totally valid. In the end, all apps on Apple platforms exist at the liberty of Apple. I have several friends who’ve seen their app stop working on Tahoe or previous macOS due to subtle changes in the SDK or the OS. I think Backdrop f
