Been using Gentoo for about a week! I've fallen in love with this distro
bumblebee-status (github)for bar, hugely modular and uses Python for modules. Nice assortment of included modules, and it's easy to create new ones.

i3's titlebar isn't rendering the fonts correctly. And the current font im using it JetBrainsMono Nerd Font, but i've also tried this using non-monospaced fonts like Noto Sans as well. All of it gives the same result. Thanks in advance.
Hmm i think i found a fix for this issue. So the thing is the status bar i use bumblebee-status needs font-awesome. And initially, this was my font configuarion: font pango:FontAwesome, JetBrainsMono Nerd Font 11 and the issue was that, if I was using FontAwesome as well, then the fonts weren't rendered correctly (as shown in the picture) however when I removed it, it worked just fine. And I noticed that two different fonts can be used, one for the bar and one for i3wm itself. Hence I tried that out. So for i3wm's font I had font pango: JetBrainsMono Nerd Font 11 and in the "bar" section I did this:

Waybar: Any template for a fan speed (RPM) module?
I switched to bumblebee-status a few years ago and find it to pretty extensible. Python modules, including lm-sensors support. I have blocks on my bar for radiator push fans rpm, radiator pull fans rpm, both pumps rpm, water in and water out temperatures... as well as a bunch of other stuff like CPU VRM current, package temps, load/usage, etc.

i3wm border color
https://i3wm.org/docs/userguide.html#client_colors This is the official page for it. It explains it pretty well. Some people also use https://github.com/tobi-wan-kenobi/bumblebee-status for more color options and themes! Though you might have to point the thing to a custom config file.

Thank you, dear community! (from the author of bumblebee-status)
Today, in what is still completely unbelievable to me, my small, humble project bumblebee-status reached 1k stars on github. Thank you so much to everyone who uses it or contributes to it, you are awesome! (459 PRs and over 400 opened issues mean that most of the work on this project is anyhow done by the community)

colored statusbar in dwm w/ statuscolor
I just patched statuscolors to my dwm build with the aim of bringing colors to my statusbar (I use dwmblocks). I want to achieve something aesthetically similar to bumblebee-status, with each statusbar block appearing in a different color. As explained in the patch documentation, I defined an array of colors in my dwm config, something like this:

i3blocks vs Polybar
How about Bumblebee-status or Polybar?" That's a question of preference. Both are excellent.

i3-nagbar Blocked By i3bar
Hey everyone. I recently switched from i3status to py3status but I am running into one issue. When it displays a battery notification using the i3-nagbar and the status bar is hidden, it renders correctly. However, when I show the status bar and hide it again, the outline of the status bar is still there, blocking the i3-nagbar.

i3-nagbar Hidden Under i3 bar
Hey everyone. I recently switched to py3status, a wrapper around i3status. However, I had one problem with the battery module. When it sends notifications for low battery, it displays an i3-nagbar. While this nagbar is displayed, I display the status bar. When I hide the status bar again, the outline of the status bar stays, hiding the nagbar. When I click the X on the nagbar, it only updates when I redisplay the status bar.

Waybar styled to look like swaybar?
Did you have a look at py3status? It's compatible with i3status (you can start with the same configuration file), but offers a lot of modules to extend the functionality of i3status.

Py3Status not launching
I’m not sure which distro you’re running but if you haven’t seen the official documentation, please do so. If the community here isn’t able to help you, please open a ticket on GitHub. My guess is you don’t have the correct version of Python. Which distro are you using?
