  • Looking for a screen locker for your laptop that's simple but still looks good? Is slock just too basic for you? I recently switched to using betterlockscreen, which is a screen locker powered by i3lock but actually looks pretty nice. In this video, I'll show you how to give your lock screen different effects like a blur or a dimming effect, how to make customizations, how to make your screen lock on suspend, and more.

    Love the regained activity 🥳
    I personally use i3lock-color with xss-lock for the lock on suspend and I quite like it, but not gonna lie, after this video, I really do consider switching to betterlockscreen

      betterlockscreen is literally just i3lock-color with a wrapper script to make it look nicer, so if you like the look, give it a try

    I use xscreensaver, because an animated lockscreen is even cooler. I run the aerial screensaver, which is just aerial footage recorded for apple tv. Another reason I like xscreensaver is that its quite secure. Though the only downside is most of the screensavers are quite dated but still cool.

      It's been ages since I used a screensaver, but that sounds interesting, I might have to check it out
