A clean wallpaper is the first onboarding experience for a user. Some distros have horrible wallpapers. other than that wallpaper doesn’t matter. personally I did a lot of late night computer work so wanted a redish background. I found this image, did a deep search but coyld not find original artist/photographer.
Can confirm, I never thought I cared about wallpaper or that it made much difference but it turns out it was a big part of why I like elementOS/pantheon so much and after switching gnome’s wallpaper to a similar one I realised I liked it more
Sounds dumb but it really has a subconscious effect on how much you like the DE as a whole
