I recently downloaded linux mint and I wanted use a live wallpaper so I found out I can do that with hidamari.

I've downloaded from the software package manager but it doesn't launch when I click launch.

What am I doing wrong?

    Do you mean a flatpak? Flatpaks are notorious for not integrating. Try to see if hidamari is available first as a .deb file in the official repos (uninstall the flatpak first). If that's not it, then it seems that it doesn't work with the Cinnamon desktop, which has control over the wallpaper functions.

      I was able to solve the problem. Instead of downloading it from the Software Manager I installed it from the terminal instead.

      When I installed it from the software manager it didn't download one of the packages (org.gnome.platform/44) but when I did it from the terminal it did.

      Thx though.

      Edit: Yeah it was a flatpak.
