I want a display manager that shows the desktop as the background, instead of a background image or video. I’m thinking of auto-logging in on boot, and adding another startup command to Hyprland to lock the desktop and show the display manger. My searches didn’t yield anything. The closest I could find is hyprlock which blurs the desktop, but that’s just a lock screen & not a proper display manager.


When you log out, have a script take screenshot, blur it and save to a known file.
Conf your display manager to use that file as background.
