Hello @everyone, including @miksage @GillyRabutTsurwa, I found an alternative on: https://github.com/saint-13/Linux_Dynamic_Wallpapers.

@TrifanBogdan24, thank you. This is a good solution that will do the job for the time being. I wish most of their wallpapers had more than just a day and night state, but is good otherwise. I still hope there's a fix for this issue.

Additionally, I doubt this is specifically an issue with Ubuntu issue, but with Gnome.
