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

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

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.

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.

Just a heads up, I'd delete this to hide your email. Up to you

Running Mando at the moment.

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!

Nice, why does it say nosy little fucker?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour 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

[–] [email protected] 3 points 18 hours ago

My lock screen is just my wallpaper, which I can't post one screenshot of because my phone cycles through 175 of them. You definitely could tell a lot about me based on that alone, and also based on what wallpapers I have and in what order they're in
