I personally prefer KDE because I like easy customizablility and it can look really pretty with some programs like kvantum.

    i3-gaps all the way, no status bar (except for a tmux one I have set up to show weather, brightness, volume, etc). Its simple, never have to use the mouse, can watch things behind or beside my text editor, etc.

      I like having my status bar aha. I do find myself rarely using the mouse though, which is always nice.

      Personally I haven’t jumped to i3-gaps, I’m happy with vanilla i3. And I like a minimal status bar, although plenty of virtual desktops have something full screen living in them.

      I love this idea - I’m using i3status-rust but now I’m wondering if I really need it. How do you deal with workspaces? (like knowing which workspace you’re on)

        I don’t use qutebrowser cause I need my FF plugins to live 😉, but I do use vim vixen which has vim like navigation for FF.
