I wish there were flowers on the taskbar, and that they'd be visible even when windows are maximized. I don't do a lot of work in windowed mode, so it sort of defeats the purpose of seeing a cute garden. It's still a nice idea though!
Hi, I love this app. One little problem though, it seems to flag the word "sex" in bisexuals. Would be nice if it could be fixed. You can say "fuck" though.
Just one thing is missing for me....maybe I set it up wrong. The Desktop Meadow functions excellent on my first monitor, but is unable to appear on my extended display//2nd monitor.
I was hoping to have a full page window on monitor 1, and a partial window on Monitor 2 so I could view my Desktop Meadow whilst I work on other things. Of Course, for now I can just reverse this so that my smaller window and Meadow sit on my first monitor and I work on the 2nd in Full windows.
I know NOTHING about coding or development really so I have no idea if this is even feasible. But I'll see what I can find out.
Either way, this is a sweet little Meadow and 2 people have already reminded me in my mailbox to stay H Y D R A T E D.
All of the apps made by samperson are designed to only work on a single monitor, this means it is slightly lighter on lower powered computers or people who have mismatched monitor sizes
Having troubles with it! For a while it worked and I loved it b ut recently it doesn't show up. I've tried reinstalling it and runing it again but it says its already open.
there is a discord server that you can join for help however at the current time this issue is unfixable however the creator is aware of it so may be fixed soon
Please please consider adding multi-monitor support! I want this on all of my monitors, not just on the primary one that usually has stuff open maximized.
I don't know why the dev decided not to make this win7 compatible but that was a mistake.
Win7 is not dead, it's not close to dead, and people will still be using it in significant numbers until and probably even after microsoft releases their next OS.
If you are going to develop for windows at all, ignoring win7 support is pure absurdity.
You know, except for when EternalBlue forced Microsoft to release a patch for Windows XP after support ended to prevent things from exploding. They won't do the same this time.
EternalBlue affected pretty much all versions of windows, including 8 & 10 which were well inside their support period. Nothing about that was winxp or even win7 exclusive.
Also by the time that exploit came out most people weren't even on winxp anymore. Most people who were avoiding win8 & 10 had long since migrated to win7 which was also within it's support window and was still affected.
As for microsoft not fixing such an issue if it were to happen again...
Your whole argument is that they fixed it the last time something major happened and therefore they won't in the future? You pretty much shot your own argument in the foot as you made it.
If something like that happens again, microsoft will fix it because it's a major black mark on their company if they don't. As awful of a company as microsoft is and as little as they care about their users, they can't and won't ignore an issue like that. It's just too damaging to their company for them to do that.
I've been down this road multiple times before through multiple versions of windows. An older "unsupported version" is not drastically less safe than whatever their current offering is. They certainly would like you to think that is the case since it benefits them for you to do so but it just isn't true.
this is adorable! my computer is super calming and cheery now. i think flowers and such are supposed to grow on the task bar, but they won't show up for me. is there any way to fix this? thank you so much!
Is it possible to change which monitor it comes up on? I can't seem to get any settings to pull up, and all the icons are unusably-tiny on my 4k monitor
I LOVE it, but it bugs out when you open/close a game :( The mailbox gets tucked into the right corner and the buttons on the left get pushed more to the right so they're covering the taskbar. Also the flowers get pushed slightly into the window instead of being ontop of them. So I guess perfect for people who only use their PC for work, but gamers might have a tough time with it

First thing I downloaded from the big bundle and then I'm told it doesn't support my OS (Win7). That's ... sad.
:'(
yea for me it didn't work for win 10 even tho 2 days ago it did

Hi, fellow lgbt+ person, I find that hilarious that the word "sex" is blacklisted, but not "fuck"
I absolutely love this!

I just posted farther up with the same problem and there's no way to get support for it. :(

I really love this app. It's soo nice to see flowers and birds and to receive kind letters. It's a really cool concept!
Please have to be compatiable with windows 8.1
aw, my heart
Please please consider adding multi-monitor support! I want this on all of my monitors, not just on the primary one that usually has stuff open maximized.
Did you take into consideration that the Windows taskbar can be on top?
Right now the plants are growing ON my taskbar icons
How are the messages moderated?
I really like this, and was wondering what other programs there are that are similar to this. Any suggestions?
It's not a program, but a website. It's still similar.
This website lets strangers write unmoderated letters to throw into the void. I really like it.
I love this so much! I sent my first letter and am super excited to get one back!
how do you work it it is in my downloads but it says no available application?
Try using the website instead of the app! I had this problem but only when using the app!
I can't install on Win 8.1 :(
Same. Was super looking forward to this.
Same
The meadow is only designed to work on Windows 10
This is so cute! Its a shame that it can't run on Mac though. :(
How do I uninstall this application?
How the hell do I uninstall this app? I UNINSTALLED IT AND IT STILL KEEPS POPPING UP ON START UP
you can remove it manually
if ur using windows, u might need to go to task manager, expand the window, and go to startup. Find it and disabel it
thank u but doesnt that mean it still exists on my pc in a way even if the service is disabled?
yes u can delete it
does it live in a folder
Love this, got it in the equality bundle. I'd pay extra for the ability for it to work across multiple monitors and maximized windows <3
This looks cute, too bad I can't try it.
I don't know why the dev decided not to make this win7 compatible but that was a mistake.

Support for Windows 7 from Microsoft ended in January, it's a genuine security risk to keep it as your daily driver.
No, it's not. That is a lie microsoft tells the public to motivate people to upgrade.
If you were ever relying on microsoft to keep you safe then you were never safe to begin with.
Get a respectable internet security suite like bitdefender and win7 is just fine.
People and businesses used winxp for years after microsoft ended their support and nothing exploded.
You know, except for when EternalBlue forced Microsoft to release a patch for Windows XP after support ended to prevent things from exploding. They won't do the same this time.
That's a pretty bad example.
EternalBlue affected pretty much all versions of windows, including 8 & 10 which were well inside their support period. Nothing about that was winxp or even win7 exclusive.

It interferes with ShareX, so if there's any way that could be fixed, that'd be lovely.
this is adorable! my computer is super calming and cheery now.
i think flowers and such are supposed to grow on the task bar, but they won't show up for me. is there any way to fix this? thank you so much!
Same for me. A real bummer since most of my windows are vertically maximized so can’t see any flowers on them.
This is the cutest little thing..absolutely adorable and I cannot wait until I get a letter! Cheers.
