I use Openbox window manager, though with many keybindings copied from or inspired by i3. I don't like using i3 directly as I think it wastes space and doesn't offer enough "freedom of movement". I keep most windows maximised and switch between windows with Alt+Tab, and between workspaces with Ctrl+Alt+arrows. I launch most of my applications with keyboard shortcuts, gmrun, or dmenu. I have disabled minimising windows as this just wastes time. I use Firefox to browse. Admittedly there's still a lot of the web which requires a mouse, including webapps I need for work. I have tried Vimperator and Pentadactyl extensions, but didn't really like them. Firefox has some keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+PgUp/PgDn to switch tabs, and ' to search for link text and Enter to follow it. The "It's All Text" extension allows you to dump text fields into the text editor of your choice. I use Gmail for mail, it has good keyboard shortcuts. I've tried mutt but couldn't find a config I liked. I use Vim to text edit, Vimcasts.org was fantastic for improving past "i" and ":wq". I use Weechat for IRC which has good default keybindings and lets you make more, it also has fantastic plugins. My work is largely in webapps (which require mouse), IRC, and commandline. Managing files in the commandline is tedious. The file manager is one of the last major mouse-driven things I have in my workflow.
