Great choice. I use almost the same setup (on Slackware) except with uzbl as my browser (again a WebKit-based browser with vi keybindings) and dwm, although I alternate between WMs and DEs a lot.
The Unix way in general just feels so much more natural. There are alternative WMs and DEs for Windows too, though. I haven't tried any.
- farresito 13y agoI'm aware of some hacking you can do to make tiling wm's work on Windows, but if you really need to go to that point, then just go to linux, unless you have important apps than only work on Win. I've tried to learn uzbl. I actually installed it around a month ago, but really need to spend some time with it. I might change the config so it's similar to luakit. The only issue with luakit is it sometimes hangs, and I doubt it's lack of good hardware in my computer. How are you liking uzbl? Do you recommend giving it a try? I don't think it's going to be that different from luakit. The first tiling wm I used was dwm. I can't really remember why I moved to i3. I think the config was way easier (I changed a lot of things, I must admit, and the fact I didn't have to compile it probably was the reason), but I remember seeing really beautiful screens on the archlinux forum. Maybe I will give it a try again, although I'm pretty have already with i3.
