Sorry If this is the wrong place, just delete it for me, downvotes hurt my feelings.
Did you guys know the famous flipqlo actually required you to be always online? I didn't! Until my internet was gone for 100 days thanks to my Ips. Heck I made my own version. Requires nothing. It even works on windowsXP x86! Multi-lingual and shows date too! I will add virustotal soon, It is packed with upx. ~~Size 350kb~~ now 900kb without compressions because vt hates it!! Download: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/InevitableDays/InevitableDays.github.io/refs/heads/main/Others/Demos/X99Clock.scr Vt 3/71 you can test it too. I will add link I am on mobile as of now
I was actually thinking that screensavers might make a comeback if OLEDs become the norm. CRTs could suffer from burn-in, even if the problem was minor enough that most screensavers were really for fun, and in the 1990s, screensavers were pretty common. LCDs don't see burn-in, so screensaver use seems to have kinda disappeared. Plasma displays can get burn-in, but never really hit very widespread use. But...OLEDs can.
Today, I think that most systems have some form of automatic power-down of the display if someone isn't using it, so maybe that competes with screensavers.
