feel free to list other window managers you’ve used.

I have been happy with bspwm, but considering trying something else. I love its simplicity and immense customizability. I like that it is shell scriptable, but it is not a deal breaker feature for me.

I like how the binary split model makes any custom partition possible.

    XMonad. Been using it for almost a decade, and very powerful. I3 I hear is also good.

      Same here, but I’m about ready to accept Wayland… Seems like sway is the best option?

        Sway is more of an i3 clone. I used to use xmonad, but recently I have been using river with wayland. It has similar defaults to xmonad, also being a dwm clone

      I haven’t used XMonad in a long time, but it was my go-to for a few years. It was solid. The main issue is that you configure it in Haskell, and I don’t know Haskell.
