      as if your average linux user wouldn't use the terminal to change the desktop background.

          Here is example of simple bash script:

          #!/bin/bash

WP="$(find ~+ -type f -exec mimetype {} + 2>/dev/null | awk -F': +' '{ if ($2 ~ /^image\//) print $1 }' | sort -R | tail -30 | shuf -n 1)"

dconf write /org/mate/desktop/background/picture-filename "'${WP}'"

          lmao

              wdym, this is so easy to read:

              https?:\/\/(www\.)?[-a-zA-Z0-9@:%._\+~#=]{1,256}\.[a-zA-Z0-9()]{1,6}\b([-a-zA-Z0-9()@:%_\+.~#?&//=]*)

                You joke, but that's very straightforward to me.

                https, or nothing

                ://

                www., or nothing

                1-256 of these chars: [-a-zA-Z0-9@:%._+~#=]

                Until you get to a "." followed by:

                1-6 of these chars:[a-zA-Z0-9()]

                Any line break

                0+ of these chars: [-a-zA-Z0-9()@:%_+.~#?&//=]

                  I mean, yeah it's really not too bad when you really dig into it. But it's still just a mess.

                  Although your "https, or nothing" is actually "http, optionally s"

                  That one isn't even completely right. It gets a lot of false positives AFAIK (example: https://..com). The real thing is even worse.
