Disregard productivity, acquire comfy rice.

After using multiple tiling compositors over the years, I’m pretty much set in how my system works. There’s not much I have to do, except the occasional tweak to keybinds for launching apps, adding some window rule or changing my monitor layout. Those are things I’d have to do on any DE and they don’t take any longer.

Until I need something unexpected not yet set up by me, e.g. switching keyboard layouts. But it’s been a long time since I needed to do any of that. That’s the beauty of config files stored in git: Once it’s set, just forget about it.

Edit: I do agree though, the time it took to arrive where I am is considerable and definitely not something I recommend to others who value their time.

If I would stop spending so much time modifying (read: breaking) it it probably would be more productive. I love the ergonomics of my setup.

But also wouldn’t it be cool to add just one more fancy widget to my already janky-as-fuck eww bar? No? Well I’ll do it anyways.

Wtf is Hyprland? Waybar Rice?

wait, you guys are ricing for efficiency? i thought it was just about making it look pretty? I guess basic shortcuts and stuff are important though.

I use WM’s because they require less resources and they have less attack surface too

For me it’s not about efficiency (although tiling somewhat improves it) but rather basic comfort. With stacking wms windows constantly overlap each other, and then I have to constantly re-arrange them, alt-tab like 75 times to find the one I need, etc, and tiling does solve this issue pretty damn well.

Or you could just use GNOME
