I don't know if you're interested in monetizing this, but Wallpaper Engine on Steam is really popular (>500k reviews, 75k concurrent users). There's definitely a market for this type of product if you can find a way to differentiate yourself and crack the gtm strategy. eg seems like the wallpaper engine doesn't support linux yet, which may be your early wedge. Good luck!

Believe it or not, Wallpaper Engine apparently works through Proton and a KDE plugin:

I could see adding a nice GUI app for uploading/managing layers, editing the config, etc making waves on Steam.
Thanks for Your advise! It sounds really interesting, I have to think about it
