If you really enjoyed customizing your desktop environment for years, you would have graduated to a tiling window manager. And if you had been smart about it, you would have chosen one with a stable API. And if you had done so, you wouldn't need to "waste brain cycles" configuring your environment because it would be a solved problem. But since your example of desktop configuration is "icons show up here or there", I assume you never graduated to a real window manager.
- hanklazard 9y agoIs there one that you recommend?
- Sylos 9y agoMany people recommend i3wm to start out on, because it has good documentation. Personally, I'll run away screaming from reading any sort of manual on how to use software, rather than just dicking around with it, so I only really managed to get into tiling WMs with AwesomeWM, which is still relatively graphical.
- hanklazard 9y agoThanks! I'm going to check out AwesomeWM.
