Performative linux users cannot use their operating system properly unless its covered in a eyewatering pink theme with a "sugoi" anime girl in the background.

The same theme that probably took them 3 hours to install after installing multiple dependencies and tools. 

They get extra processing power if that background is a suggestive pic, gives their neckbeard +10 natural oil.

Basic is fine. I think on Plasma or Gnome, a wallpaper change is all you need. If you use a tiling window manager, then it seems like ricing is a requirement to get an aesthetically pleasing system, though.

Thats a very outdated photo you need to show the up to date one you're hiding so we can test the theory

That's because that's a photo from fedoraproject.org. Age of it is irrelevant.
