Why not take the ten minutes to set it up yourself? It's pretty trivial to get everything Naac described working.

  Yes I mean that is my current set up, I am not that fast though! But it would just be nice to have the full DE backing behind i3 as a distribution. Yes I know you can do everything here with list of tools, but I just want a configuration that I know has been thought out, with best practices, and easy to modify in a reproducible way. The list of dotfiles and little adjustments alone you need to marry i3 with a power manager, menu bar, network manager, is a lot! I just want the work done for me (a DE).

    But why i3 if you can do that with the existing window manager and shortcuts? It seems to me you are introducing complexity for complexity sake, with nothing to be gained - except maybe nerd credential points for using i3?

      Yes, you are right... I guess just need the tiling shortcuts and the AUR. and I guess I want gnome-control-center, and that can be that.

        I may not be fancy, but it will get you where you want to be faster, easier, and in a more maintainable way.
