Help me pick a WM /g/ Never used any distros that didnt come

Awesome WM

>>56974336
i3 for tiling
Enlightenment for stacking

>>56974336
windowlab

>>56974336
I've tried them all and Cinnamon is the best.

>>56974336
Manjaro-fluxbox

>>56974442
Do I need to know lua in order to configure it?

Hijacking your thread with an alt question.

Anybody know about the future of ArchHurd? Can I shitpost with it?

>>56974737
Yeah.

>>56974738
Hurd is vaporware, anon.

>>56974766
Wikipedia says the last version of ArchHurd was released 2011. Did everyone did abandon it? Can I use a browser with it?

>>56974336
fluxbox

>>56974336

+1 to i3

>>56974336
depends on what you want.
openbox, fluxbox or xfwm4 if you want one that's easy to get into.
awesome, i3, xmonad, dwm or spectrwm if you want tiling
bspwm, ratpoison or herbstluftwm if you want manual tiling
2bwm or cwm if you want a more minimalistic floating wm

>>56974930
Seconded, especially good if you're running it on a laptop, you practically don't use the trackpad with i3.

>>56974336
kwin

>>56974336
Install lxdm and then install a shit load of WMs and try one for a day or two and pick one you like and remove whatever you don't. I personally use i3 and love it. Get i3 gaps from yaourt and have fun. It is the same as normal i3 except you have a few more commands in the i3 config file. Namely gaps inner and gaps outer. Go look on unix porn to find some dots you can base your config off.

spectrwm

Why not get KDE? It's really nice and also easy to set up.

>>56975250
i am on debian and i installed i3 -- now what? help me, bitch nigga!

>>56975267
that looks gorgeous! what the hell, man. how come my fonts dont look that? how come my themes dont look like that? how come my window managers are clunky?

>>56975267
32GB of RAM?

>>56975290
All you gotta do is use the Hot New Stuff buttons inside KDE settings modules.

Dunno why people gotta try so hard to rice when you can reach comfy status with very little effort

>>56975308
yeah, just upgraded my old desktop from 2013 to 32 gig today too

>>56975290
>how come my fonts dont look that

>how come my themes dont look like that?
Go find the themes on the web on in repos

>how come my window managers are clunky?

You have to go configure it.

>>56975191
flattr dark is perfect for that theme

>>56975290
Do you have a 4k display motherfucker?

fuck this shite, back to cuckdows!

>>56975235
i really don't recommend i3 for a beginner, try awesomewm with its default config

>>56975354
Ricing windows is actually harder and more prone to failure than even tryhard wms

>>56975361
i don't give a fuck about the ricing aspect i just want a non-clunky fast desktop environment

>>56974455
+1, definitely i3. very easy setup, easy to use. Does have floating and stacking support but it's nothing special

>>56975388

back to windows it is!

>>56975339
Installed flattr and flattr dark and they both look beautiful. Thank you based anon.

>>56975434
use cinnamon and stop complaining if you can't figure out how the complicated shit works

It doesn't make you a cool kid using software that doesn't have half of the necessary features preconfigured

>>56975446
good riddance, archfag cancerposter

Not our fault you cannot properly install and configure anything on Linux. Have fun with your cancerous Windows OS.

If the OP has not been scared off by all these faggots then try I would suggest they try antergos or manjaro.

Manjaro would most likely be the best bet. It is basically arch but a little more forgiving and has a de installed. learn to use a cli eventually though op. I come from the school of thought that the more tools the better, you just have to know which tools are best for you to do the job.

>>56975538
This. Manjaro has a preinstalled i3 version too with everything configured nicely although the bright green is cancer. I just use arch because I can just upload my dotfiles somewhere and then download them later if I ever need a reinstall. No point in overcomplicating things.

>>56974737
Basically if you are not an idiot you will catch how to configure it just from their manual. You will learn basics of lua too so it's a win-win. That's how I learned it.

Ps awesome is awesome

>>56974336
i3-gaps
Easy as fuck to configure and use, and fairly easy to make pretty

I3 tiling
Openbox stacking
There are the best in difficulty and functions

>>56975267
That's gorgeous, can I have your qtcurve color scheme?

i3. And get a vim keybindings extension for your browser.

>>56975191

Flat, basic, minimal, and can be any color you like.

this will help you

windowlab or cwm

don't fall for the tiling wm meme

Dwm is so crisp . Always at 0% CPU idle.

>>56974455
i3 for tiling
i3 for stacking
