Oh, yes, the same Conky script everyone seems to use. :)

The primary problem with deskmodding is that once someone has done a thing, it is not special anymore.

Fourteen years ago, Windows deskmodding with ridiculously colorful icons was a thing which regularly hit the "best desktop" contests - and won. If I did that today, it would probably make them spit at me (or praise me for my retro style...).

As most people fill their desktop with the applications they work in anyway, the best deskmodding is probably which makes you work more efficiently; hotkeys, additional info bars which are always visible, et cetera. You simply never have the chance to show off your desktop in the real world and it will bore you quickly.
