14 y/olds grew up.
- yjftsjthsd-h 8y agoWhere "growing up" of course means becoming cynical and bitter, and pretending that hating fun is "mature"? And before you tell me that it was impractical... sure, a bit, but I really doubt the wm is a significant limiting factor in anyone's workflow, and it's still every bit as useful as whatever Windows uses these days.
- bitwize 8y agoFun doesn't belong in a window manager for daily use, I'm sorry. Cute UI animations have a very strong "Pepsi taste test" effect: when you are just trying them out they look interesting and cool, but over the long term, over daily use, they are distracting and present other disadvantages: all compositing WMs, including those on macOS and Windows, introduce latency that straightforward tiling or stacking WMs lack.

- solarkraft 8y agoSo far I haven't.
