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.

    I use Qtile. Mainly because it’s written in python.
    It’s easy to customize, and gets the job done :-) Came from I3 before…

    The only thing is that I haven’t really found a way yet to have both floating and tiling modes. I only really like tiling mode when I do work and need to stay focused

       # Toggle floating windows
    Key([mod], "f", lazy.window.toggle_floating())
    ]

# Drag floating layouts.
mouse = [
    Drag([mod], "Button1", lazy.window.set_position_floating(),
         start=lazy.window.get_position()),
    Drag([mod], "Button3", lazy.window.set_size_floating(),
         start=lazy.window.get_size()),
    Click([mod], "Button2", lazy.window.focus())
]```

Edit: had to fix codeblock
