I've heard that a phone lock screen can tell you a lot about the person. So, I'm curious.

Yes, I do use my "emergency contact" text at the bottom as jokes related to whatever my lock screen is at the time

All of the lock screen backgrounds and wallpapers on my devices are photos I've taken at various times with my (not-phone) camera.

[–] Classy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 13 hours ago

Very nice, reminds me of mesquite

[–] Altrex@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago

Only thing missing here is that I have the weather on there normally.

I've been rocking some pixel art by Postmodern Ouroboros for a couple of years now. It fits the clock and icon locations so well I haven't felt like changing it.

Really neat Bloodborne fanart that I found

I believe it fits well with my screen lock - a 6x6 pattern with invisible lines/dots

An extremely zoomed in picture of my wife's legs in fishnet in blue light. If you don't look long it just looks abstract.

My hamb eating a bit of salmon

Some dark space scene. The clock sits perfectly so I've kept it.

Home screen is a grouchy can with a cup of coffee tho!

[–] fishos@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

The background changes to match the current weather.

[–] 42yeah@lemm.ee 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

It’s the Forest app! I used it long ago.

Nice, why does it say nosy little fucker?

[–] fishos@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Because years ago I had an ex whom whenever I was at her parents, they would snoop through my phone. I'd seen a joke image of a large colored box with that text in really tiny letters(so you had to squint to see it) and decided to copy it on my phone lock screen. Needless to say, they stopped soon after. But I kept it around ever since because I think it's funny. I just set the "emergency lock screen info" to that text to display it.

Thanks! It's amusing when occasionally a friend will see it and act mock offended. I had someone once say it was rude - to which I replied "But how did you see it?". Shuts em up fast lol
