Description José Rafael 2024-08-13 21:36:18 UTC
I would like to request the removal of the National Geographic Day Wallpaper, as their server appears to have not updated the wallpaper since 2022, as the wallpaper is always the same ( https://www.nationalgeographic.com/photo-of-the-day/media-spotlight/taxi-halloween-costume-man )
I noticed this on Arch so I thought it was a bug, but now that I moved to Fedora it's still the same!

Yeah, sounds like we need to.
Comment 2 Nate Graham 2024-08-27 23:43:01 UTC
It would appear the service has been ended. So we should delete the plugin.

Delete National Geographic PotD provider

It hasn't updated since 2022, and National Geographic appears to have
discontinued the service themselves.
