What's the best wm and why is it i3?

It's XFCE retard

easier to configure than other tiling wm

itsa meme ya dip

>x11 as wm
>what happened to Sup Forums?
What the fuck? Are you stupid?

Actually it's Xfce

Xfce ist a DE

>ist
spotted the stupid germanon phoneposter

Bash :)

awesome wm, because no configuration is required. Sane defaults.

xfce is not wm

Why would you use a tiling WM if you're not going to configure it at all?
Also, you need to know lua to configure awesome.

Ratpoison of OpenBox

>need to know lua
oh no... how will I ever learn something as arcane as a scripting language that looks identical to every other programming language?

Hey boys.

How does Facebook do it such that I open a chat window at the bottom and then click on pages but the chat windows don't reload? They can't possibly send AJAX requests for the entire page besides the chat window, right? So how do they manage it?

Motherfuckers I didn't mean to post in this shitthread. It's xmonad by the way

Uh ah, Sway is better.

i3 + Wayland = Sway

xmonad has 100mb of dependencies.

Really hurts muh minimalism.

>not using Haskell on a daily basis thus making those dependencies useful

>Sway is better
No it's not. I've actually been doing some development on sway, and I can say that it's still very flawed. There is a LOT of shit it can't do properly.
Most of its problems seem to come from WLC.

Not gonna learn a language to use a wm.

Should work the other way around (e.g. already familiar with haskell and like the idea of xmonad).

ratpoison is obscenely better than i3

>not already knowing and loving haskell
Why are you even on Sup Forums

>not using cwm

Tiling wms are not just for ricing and posting screenshots to Sup Forums. I use a tiling wm because I like software managing my windows for me. Awesome comes with 8 preset configurations + floating. You can add your own configurations or import them from the web.

I don't add a bottom bar because I have a widescreen monitor and vertical space is precious. I also don't need my CPU, RAM or network usage displayed because it doesn't matter to me.

And Lua is easy.

haasn is that you

If does what you need it to out of the box, why bother configuring it?

they are both bae

>sway is better

No way to rotate monitors, even gnome manages rotation on wayland.

Because I don't have to drag windows around or accidentally close programs.

It's bspwm
