Bspwm is better than i3

Actually, pushing windows around with mice is the autistic thing to do.

When do you ever need multiple windows in a weird arrangement with cracks where you also see some of the desktop, with one window at x: 232-2415 and y: 5-323 and another window at x: 1-210 and y:400-1047 and then some more like that?

Top half + bottom half with equal vertical split with the ability to make it top 70% / bottom 30% or just full screen with the ability to easily split effortlessly is far less autistic.

As in: no idiotic multi-stage selection like on MS Windows where you drag the active window to the respective border, then select the other window from a list of all open windows or anything. You just get the split once you open another Window on the same workspace.

needing your windows to be perfectly aligned is 100% a symptom of OCD/autism

Organizing literally any area in your home is for people with obsessive tendencies and poor spatial memory.

>you can't use the keyboard to position windows in Windows
t. you

Actually, having to manually edit a config file so simple dialog boxes dont take up half your screen is pretty autistic.

Having any Window that opens automatically added to some tiled layout starting with the obvious full screen minus task bar on the first window on the workspace, that is just normal.

If you want to drag and resize any window with your mouse that opens to still see your desktop waifu or to "find the individual best composition" of windows, that's simply autism.

Don't have to edit anything on Awesome WM. Like many tiling WM, it will just open floating popup windows as floating popup windows of their desired size.

If you prefer use one of the other WMs that doesn't have the concept of floating popup windows or want it to just always tile, that's fine and your choice of course. Ultimately it doesn't cause any special hardship even with the few pieces of software that DO have popup Windows (compare that to nearly ALL software that has rectangular windows that should just be tiled by default).

The shortcuts involved are crap for rearranging windows, and it's having you do manually every fucking time for every window what it definitely should automatically do by default.

It almost completely fucks up the basic foundations of an effortlessly usable tiling WM.

rice that shit jesus christ

just an xfce comment passing through

I3 just needs to be less autistic. It should ship with a more capable bar provider than i3status. Should have a nicer launcher than dmenu. Other than that nothing beats it in terms of productivity.

beautiful

no faggot, default install is almost perfect

Try awesome and/or add rofi?

Not even close

I just wish xfce opens new windows in a predictable way. Sometime Firefox opens full screen, sometime it looked like it was squeezing its way out of a sardine can.

does bspwm have a bar with a tray?
dropped dwm because of this

i like her face; it reminds me of my mother

try awesomewm, it's based on dwm but not as focused on being minimal but rather responsive and functionality

I use i3 and never use a terminal other than to update and install packages.

Autism.
Why not use a full DE?
Based, checked, and redpilled

based and redpilled

but i like i3 gaps

MWM or bust.

i3 is okay.

GNU+Linux is a meme though, use MacOS or FreeBSD.

peak sperg

because it's easier to start from scratch than to remove stuff and DEs come with a lot of shit I don't need/want
that said tiling wms are shit no matter what

I used both for a bit but ended up on openbox and haven't switched since.

>Bspwm is better because it's an actual desktp GUI
Actual bspwm user here. What in the literal fuck are you trying to say?

xmonad is better than both

Sure, if you're a hipster larper trying to convince other hipster larpers that you actually do anything at all with Haskell.

OwO

it's all the autism of configuring dwm but with none of the simplicity, performance or cleanliness
fuck off

there's a patch for that.
You can also just use an external bar

somebody should make a dwm config that makes the keybinds identical to i3
dwm seems faster but I hate using the alt key for my mod

I prefer it, but i3 does have advantages if you want finer control over window locations.

stock xorg looks better than that

That someone is you, as you have to customize your own config before compile in the first place.

I'm too brainlet to understand the config file
i3 config file is comfy

/* key definitions */
#define MODKEY Mod1Mask

You see that line? Change that Mod1Mask to the key you'd like. For example, if you wanted the Windows (Super) key, it'd be a Mod4Mask.

DWM is better than both.

i wish someone would make a patch that emulates i3's modes though.
writing a million dmenu scripts just isn't the same

What modes are you referring to?

i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html#binding_modes

Ah, okay. I can't see a personal use case for them, but I assume you use them so it makes sense to be frustrated that DWM doesn't have that feature.
I kind of hate the i3 config file. Maybe I'm old fashioned, but config.h is the comfiest of all.

I agree that config.h is the best solution, but I always end up having to do a lot of auxillary shit with dwm that ironically makes it more "bloated" as a setup than just using i3.
both are fine though and stock dwm > stock i3 by far. I think we can all agree that bspwm is the worst tiling mememanager
