Has anyone else's Desktop Meadow mail been acting up recently? Each time I click the bird to view mail, it just flies away and no message is brought up anymore. This has been happening for two days now, and my wi-fi connection is fine.
yeah, mine does that too!! also, i closed it for one second, and now it won't open. it says the program is still running, and if i want to close it, i need to press the icon on the bottom right. but the icon disappears everytime i try to click it!
hmmmm seems like a weird issue if you have discord then you could try asking for help in the support server (check the desktop goose description, just copied the invite) https://discord.com/invite/xZFRmPT
so you mean you can turn it off without deleting it so it doesn't disrupt my online class? cause that would solve all the problems I had with this before installing it
PLEASE GET THIS FOR MAC PLEASE IM DYING TO HAVE ONE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE I WAITED SO LONG FOR DESKTOP GOOSE AND I LOVE IT, OH AND LITERALLY PLEASE LIKE MAKE IT BETTER QUALITY NOT PIXELATED EVEN THO ITS CUTE ALL WAYS I JUST FEEL LIKE IT WOULD BE MORE REAL FOR MAC ANYWAYS PLEASE PLEAS MAC I LITERALLY SHOWED GOOSE TO ALL MY FRIENDS AND NOW I REALLY REALLY WANT A MEDOW PLEASE MAC MAC MAC OS MAC OS AC OS MAC MAC MAC MAC OS MAC OS THANK U SM U LITERALLY GAVE LIFE TO MY COMPUTER OK BYE DONT FORGET TO GET IT ON MAC PLEASE PRIORITIZE THIS ILL BE CHECKING every DAYAYYAYA, PLEASE DONT FORGET AND TRY AND FINISH IT ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ok thx love you
Samperson is in the process of working on one however he has been a bit preoccupied with other things so the mac version of the meadow has taken a back seat, it will be released.... at some point, also it is a mac, app development on a mac is awful
the only way to do it is to set that monitor as the primary one settings display select the monitor you want scroll down check the "make this my main display" checkbox
It would be nice to have a options to have flowers and the mail box on top of the taskbar even tho you have a window that is maximized, anywho this hing is very cool!
This is great, though my one complaint is the plants aren't hidden when a program is fullscreen, which is annoying if your playing a game or watching a video fullscreen.
It's good but I have a problem, I uninstalled using the tray icon thing and now I get an error message from it every time I turn on my PC, I can't find any desktop meadow files on my PC and don't know how to fix this
Oh? You have a custom engine? That was a secret. It would be neat if you released the engine. But I know, custom engines are good, but if you want to share it, it will be A MESS.
This is cool! Super cool! This is kind of distracting so I might have deleted it but it is pretty damn cool and fun! I want to ask questions you will never answer because you are famous:
Tools used to make this and other of your apps.
Inspiration to make things like these.
How do you feel making these apps that control the desktop of the user.
If you could. You could answer these.
very cool

p.s I am not at all old. I am kind of young. I am not the wise old man, another guy is.
Help! I decided to delete this because it became too distracting in school but when I went to delete it on my home screen (the files are off of my computer as well) everything is still there. I tried redownloading the file to try and delete it that way but it still didn't work. Please help
there's a bug that when you full screen something, the desktop meadow window thing goes down and right a little bit. and the only why to fix is to relaunch
I absolutely love this! It's so adorable and I admire how more alive it makes my computer feel. I adore the mail I get and it always brightens my day whenever I see the little mail bird fly down and bring me another wonderful message from someone. I give this a five star rating. I do have a few questions and maybe suggestions for future updates.
1. Is there a way to write longer letters? It feels like some bug or something that's preventing me from writing more. I want to be able to write more but idk what to do about it. Is there a file or option I have to change? I am not sure what's happening with it. If someone could help me with this I would be much obliged.
2. I saw someone commented something about adding trees and I loved that idea. Is that possible to add more plants and such? Maybe extending across the entire taskbar or something?
3. More ideas for plants and birds: Herons, trees, vines that go up the side of your computer or up the background, parrots, geese, maybe flocks of birds that go across your background in migration flocks, cranes, hummingbirds, horsetails (idk I just really like horsetails for some reason).
4. Maybe an option to be able to plant and water certain plants and seeds. Like having a specific garden that fits your likes. Maybe you can even choose to send plants or seeds along with your letters to give others new varieties. Or maybe be able to pick flowers and send them with the letters.
5. Background nature music would be awesome! It probably wouldn't be on automatically but there could be an option to put on background music while doing work or something. Like chirping birds or rainfall. And the music could have effects on the garden itself. Like chirping birds would have more birds appearing, or rainfall would have rain weather.
6. Someone asked about adding an option to save certain letters to read later. I really like that idea! I love some of the messages I receive and would love to look back through them.
7. Weird suggestion but maybe a way to dress up your mail bird? Idk but I think it would be adorable seeing the bird in a sombrero. Stupid idea but whatever.
Thank you for reading! I would love to hear about future updates and such. Have a wonderful day!

This is really beautiful, I love the art style, how cute the animals are and it's just very cozy with animals going about their day.
Also, the amount of people begging and harassing you in the comments is absolutely ridiculous.
