My New Favorite Lock Screen for Linux! (betterlockscreen)



Looking for a screen locker for your laptop that’s simple but still looks good? Is slock just too basic for you? I recently switched to using betterlockscreen, which is a screen locker powered by i3lock but actually looks pretty nice. In this video, I’ll show you how to give your lock screen different effects like a blur or a dimming effect, how to make customizations, how to make your screen lock on suspend, and more.
