I'd take a very minor issue with this: try xfce with dmenu (from the suckless tools package) bound to the super key. I maximise applications within xfce using alt-F11. All window decorations gone, no OS junk pixels visible at all. I invoke applications using dmenu. I switch between windows with alt-tab, and workspaces with alt-ctrl-arrows.
Perhaps I'm taking this to extremes...
- bryanlarsen 15y agoI'm not sure what you're gaining (unless you're also hiding the application's menu). A maximized application in Unity doesn't waste any more space than what you describe. The top bar is still visible, but it's merged with the menu, so there's no effective wastage.
- keithpeter 15y agoTrue, but there is nothing appearing at the left if I wait too long on the File menu, and the indicators are hidden. Perhaps this is an extreme example. I actually rather like Unity on small screens.
