  1. It's difficult to grasp, perhaps. But that you build your own dwm, and just schlepp it around with you, remains unbeatable.

  2. @jloc0 quite right. Might be why I don't say a lot there. Too many people take the smallest things the wrong way :)

    I was just interested to see what it was in relation to.

    As much as I am a guy forever, the change to LUA for Hypr is extremely tempting.

  6. I’ve been using #DWM for more than a year without major issues. I like that it’s written in C as I can easily understand it’s code and configure it to my liking.

    But due to its multiple limitations with fullscreen apps I’m being forced to move back to #Xmonad.

  7. My love letter to #Ion3 / #notionwm

    In the early 2000's I settled on a great window manager called Ion3, written by Tuomo Valkonen. It was tiling, tabbed, and static. And like most good things, it also came from Finland :blob_thinking_smirk:

    Static: you can easily set up rigid set of frames where you can throw your applications. Or even more importantly, make your window manager* do it for you. Being rigid is good, since the application window is always the same size if you want it. Out of the box the other tiling window managers always take all the available space, which isn't always the best possible solution.

    Tabbed: a frame can hold multiple applications at the time, but show only one of them. The rest show as tabs like the tabs in your browser. I remember window swallowing being a big invention a few years ago, while Ion3 had had it for 20+ years.

    Tiling: there is an excellent addition to regular tiling, which greatly enhances usability on say 1920x1080 screens, which is just a bit too narrow to have a browser and an editor side by side. It's called a float split. You can tell the window manager how much you want the frames to overlap. That way you can keep a browser at a comfortable width on one frame, and an editor at a comfortable width on another frame. And because the frames stay static in size, the browser doesn't resize and you'll be kept in the same spot on the page. Very nice feature on a long page.

    Times were good, but sadly around 2009 Tuomo moved on to other things. The project continued as Notion (not to be confused with that other Notion).

    The project is old and a bit creaky in places (the rest of the software world has moved on), and the configuration is somewhat overly complexly done. But if you get past that, it'll reward you with a distraction free and predictable environment. To this day, I haven't found a better one :pixelheart:

    #TilingWindowManager

    ps. #dwm people. Are there patches that I could use to replicate the ion3 functionality?

    EDIT: I just noticed that my gif animation seems to be converted to .mp4, and it doesn't work as nicely as it should.

  8. @dwm
    Oh, well, if you insist, you must be write ... I mean, you are obviously right. 🥸👍

  9. Recently switched from #dwm to #fvwm3 mostly out of just wanting to tinker/change the look/feel of my desktop. Not 100% sure I'm gonna stick with it and open to other options. What cool #WindowManagers are #x11 #linux folks using these days?

  10. Happy Wright Brothers Day! Today we celebrate the first successful flight by a mechanically propelled airplane on this day in 1903. To celebrate, we are giving a free copy of #DWMC to everyone taking a flight today. Better than a bag of pretzels! #MentalHealth #talktherapy #tacos

  11. Happy National Sock Day! To celebrate, we're doing collabs with @amazon @zappos @bombas and @target to include copies of #DWMC with every pair of socks sold today -- one for each foot! #mentalhealth #talktherapy #tacos

  12. So proud to see #DWMC still the #1 Bestseller at the Bob Hope Burbank Airport - just ahead of fellow Texan Matthew McConaughey - a great airplane read for your Thanksgiving travels! #mentalhealth #talktherapy #tacos

  13. @JustineSmithies I used #dwm on X. When I moved to wayland, #dwl wasn't very good. Found #riverwm and didn't look back. With river changing in the future, I tried dwl again. It's in a good state. I only use a few more patches compared to dwm. Only issue was making a couple changes to shiftview/pertag patches since I'm also using the bar patch. swallow/namedscratchpads also had to sort the order in rules.

    For warpcursor, you can also use wlrctl instead of the patch.

  14. A little tweak to dunst on a wet Saturday afternoon.

    Not sure why I didn't think of having notifications in the bottom center earlier.

  15. #dwm and #emptty now benchmarked on everybytecounts.org There are so many options for a #WindowManagers with #DisplayManager on #AlpineLinux with better performance than on bare #NixOS #Linux without a #WindowManager, at a fraction of the disk usage. Also, the next release of Alpine, in November, will have more #DesktopEnvironment / window manager options. Some of which are currently on the edge branch, or had become out of date and will have new versions.

  16. dwm is so good, I love it so much. I struggle to use any other wm or de.

    Very much worth the effort with patching and configs.

  17. Not sure why I wasn't using Terminus font for etc. Seems like a much better fit that Deja Vu...

  19. After accidentally trashing my rofi config I've got maim up and running. It's not as pretty, but it does the job(s).

  20. Well, after a couple days of setting up . I now have a really comfy . After spending some time with patching, I find myself having everything I need, and a bit more that I simply want to have....

    So, what do you think??? It basically looks like how my setup used to lol

  21. Do people actually set their keybindings in config.h in ? or do you use a keybinging tool like ??

    I am setting up my configuration and I am wondering if I should just use something outside of config.h

  22. @fossraven I use #spectrwm on a daily basis. But I got interested in #dwm just yesterday. i3 is too bloated for me

  23. dwl - dwm for Wayland
