Blanket is a new desktop app for Linux designed solely for the purpose of playing background noises like nature sounds (e.g., rain, storm), indistinct ambient noise (e.g., coffee shop), as well as white noise and pink noise. Nothing more, nothing less.
Two nice touches are that you can mix the sounds and even add custom ones. I notice too that as you start it, it remembers the last played mix, so you can just auto start it on boot up if you wish.
Being an app it can also work offline and for Manjaro it was just one click to install from the AUR.
