I am wanting to try something new.
I have run bspwm before and preferred it to i3, but it was a long time ago.
Any good resources for someone like me?
Thank you. Now we’ll see if I want to embark upon this now or wait. I just realized I’m alone ( and on vacation) with the dogs for 17 days in the beginning of may. Might be better to do major experiments then.

Just threw it in there and well I can get it to run easily enough (I love how much more logical the auto-tiling settings are). But i had forgotten a few issues from my last try with i3 and bspwm: Composition. Compton / Picom looks horrible with Firefox (firefox’s menus look awful, with large semi-transparent borders around them for example).

Well, from the look of things I still prefer bspwm over those.
Now, if there only was a tiling WM that supports composition. I know everyone is addicted to “lightness”, but modern machines… I want the tiling part, I could care less if it was as heavy as Gnome.
(I probably will install it in May anyway, but it always irritates me how bad comption works with all kind of windows except terminals)

Stupid question: How do I write arrow keys in the config? I would like Focus to be super + up down and so on, not hjkl?
Showkey should give you the appropriate key codes.
