wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin VS linux-wallpaperengine

The guide I mention in the title

I uninstalled and reinstalled wallpaper engine, and this kde plugin restored its cache. So the apps are working briefly, but cannot display. I'm out of ideas at this point

it does work on linux!! here's a kde plugin that lets you use wallpaper engine wallpapers on linux: https://github.com/catsout/wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin

I use Wallpaper Engine for Kde on Garuda (arch) Linux with Wayland & AMD Radeon 6950, see https://github.com/catsout/wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin

If you use the KDE desktop environment you can use the following repo: wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin There is a generic repo but for me it never worked, but I'll leave it here anyways: linux-wallpaperengine

Did you follow the instructions on the githubu repo? Because if you only installed it from KDE Store it'll not work.

See https://github.com/catsout/wallpaper-engine-kde-plugin/issues/162 looks like the same issue.

And before people start saying I can use things like feh or xwinwrap to set the desktop, that won't work as my use case is to use this plugin to run wallpaper engine in kde. There are alternatives like this but they don't render all the effects so its not as pretty.

Pop os use Gnome so it would not work. There is this work in progress project working on this problem. https://github.com/Almamu/linux-wallpaperengine

Im attempting to use https://github.com/Almamu/linux-wallpaperengine and in order for it run as a desktop wallpaper I have to stop anything else from drawing the wallpaper. Ive done some googling around and am unable to find anything regarding this, so I figured what better place than here to ask.

Wallpaper Engine doesn't work on Linux. but if you like to Tinker, there is this project https://github.com/Almamu/linux-wallpaperengine which aims to provide a compatible version. But if you don't really know how to Tinker with Linux, you might need help or might not want to try it.

There is a clone in development: https://github.com/Almamu/linux-wallpaperengine

There might be a back-end way to make it work, but I'm not sure. For instance, this program is "an attempt to make wallpaper engine wallpapers compatible with Linux"
