48 hours until 2018.
Still not using dwm.
Why do you hate simplicity?

I tried it and it's indeed comfy.

Reposting WM ram comparison:

I use i3, why should I make the change?

Why don't you try dwm first ffs.

I use women, why should I make the change?
>Why don't you try being gay first ffs.

>>Why don't you try being gay first
you totally should, tho

>almost 2018
>not using Sway
Really?

where do you think it'd land on ?

bump

how's it different to i3?

Maybe take a look at the documentation:
dwm.suckless.org/
dwm.suckless.org/tutorial/
dwm.suckless.org/dynamic_window_management

Why should I care?
Back when I was a kid and used plain WMs, DWM was probably the least interesting of them.
But also now I've grown up so I use use a DE.

This bricks your computer.

It doesn't make it more simple or practical.

>This bricks your computer.
Take this (You)

because Window Maker is super comfy and uses less than 3MB RAM
for a bare WM, it's relatively featureful and works like a charm
and I don't care for minimal UIs
the only real blemish Window Maker really has that I can think of is that the alt+tab switcher looks really, really out of place next to the NeXTSTEP-style everything else

When will it be ported to wayland?

If the answer is never, then sway is the best option. X is dead

Probably considerably higher considering Wayland makes window managers do lot more work that Xorg would traditionally handle.

Where do you think it'd land on ?

sounds neat, can't try it before 2018 though

Oh yeah, forgot that.
but overall, where would you say the overall combo would end up?

Why you shill dwm if 2bwm consumes less ram?

Dunno, I’d do a comparison if I was anywhere near my PC’s but about 1500 miles away from them.

2bwm sounds gay. Literally never heard of it.

If have been using gnu/linux for more than 4 years, there is no excuse for you to not try dwm.

you won't know if you are gay unless you taste dick.

Only recently started using i3, I want to check out dwm but I don't know much C and I can't help but configure shit, is it retard proof or am I fugged?

After compiling none of my hotkeys work so I can't use it at all

The only part you'll need to mess with is the config.h, and it's pretty clear what everything is. You shouldn't have too many issues with it.
The one thing you'll have to change up is how you handle other stuff. I often see people set stuff up to have their bar or wallpaper set in the config file for the WM. That's not gonna work out on DWM. You'll have to do that in some other file like xinitrc.

>simplicity
>maintaining a repo with a bunch of patches so that all of your software works as intended

I don't use patches. I don't rice. I don't do any of that. I use vanilla dwm. The ONLY thing i would do is add date and time to the status bar through xinitrc

Because I'm not a neckbeard and I like features. I used it before i3, I'm never looking back.
Also
>suckless
more like suckful amirite lmao

I love how that logo can be a 5x12 1-bit-per-pixel bitmap.

Sir, this is being a tiling window managing shilling thread. Kindly be removing yourself from this thread.

>using sucksmore software

yeah, nah.

>simplicity
>cant be configured with a simple text file
>using the rootkit formerly know as X.org instead of sane Wayland replacement

I prefer UZBL

how does he talk? it looks like an l, not an f...
>you are lake news

but it is configured with a text file, its called config.h, usually pretty small too

Dont play being a fool. You know what I'm talking about

>1970+47,99
>Sup Forums still shills a wm that is missing copy-paste or scrolling in a terminal
just like clockwork

sites.google.com/site/yjlnotes/notes/dwm
This link apparently had some good info on dwm. But it's kill and archive.org doesn't have it either. Any leads?

>Dont play being a fool. You know what I'm talking about
>cant be configured with a simple text file
i never thought of my english as being of native level, not even great, but you actually said
>simple text file
config.h is a simple text file, and that file is used to configure dwm

>missing copy-paste
??
I can copy and paste in st just fine

>scrolling in a terminal
Yeah that's a bit weird but scrollback can easiily be patched in and if your workflow involves using tmux or similar your terminal don't need it anyway.

>thinks a wm is a terminal emulator
what a fucking ding dong! but ill reply anyway...
it is explicitly said why ST doesnt support scrolling, there are patches to add scrolling functionality available if you want it so much, and there are better alternatives (as suggested by the authors)

i guess you have a clipboard manager set up then

>hurr a header file is a simple text file durr

I hope none of you are using a wm past the age of 25, otherwise your life is sad
t. comfy de user

Nope. Ctrl+shift+c/v worked out of the box for me.
Middle click works as primary paste but the usual shift-insert is mapped to C+S+Y for some reason so I mapped it back and now it works just like a normal terminal

Your DE has a window manager built in though.

better tiling expiriance (look it up)
less resources so more for your actual programms
lightweight so no fast startx
and much more that i don't know about

meant to type no lag and then changed it to fast startx but i forgot to remove the "no"

because xmonad is superior

Because I don't fucking need to please you. I love Openbox.

not if you like i3's stacked layout

Awesome is better. I don't need the 100kb-tier minimalism, being able to do configuration changes without recompiling IS actually a feature (as is having more features by default) and I accept that 2MB of bloat for it.

Unlike you however, I do like st and surf.

St indeed does all I want in a console, unedited (has unicode, has truecolor, has everything I need to run tmux). And surf is a quick secondary browser.
