Ideal Monitor Rotation for Programmers
It's exactly how it works but only if you have mutliple screens.
My comment was that, for this reason, 2 or 3 smaller (ish- ~27") 16:9 4k screens [1] (previously, 4–6 even smaller 4:3 screens) works much better for me because I can switch the spaces on my Macbook and i3/Sway virtual desktops on my Linux machine individually for each screen.
If we're talking about having a smaller number of giant screens it would need to be able to be partitioned into logical "zones" for virtual desktops to enable this way of managing sets of windows together, and I've not found anything that really does this, let alone does it well (though honorable mention to HerbstluftWM [2] which I think, with patience, could probably do something pretty close).
[1] preferably 16:10 but that seems to have died out as an aspect ratio :(

Bare bone distro that i can custumize has i want for old pc ish?
Lately I have been playing with herbstluftwm on Artix with dinit, and I dig it. The way it behaves is quite a bit different from other window managers I have used in the past, and it did take some getting used to at first, but after experimenting with the config for a couple days I ended up with a pretty deadly and very intuitive setup that - despite running on X11 - "feels" more like a proper battlestation for sure...

With rise of wayland, are simpler window managers dying?
A few projects like AwesomeWM, and Herbsluftwm have had discussions on their issue trackers about supporting Wayland but a lot of them devolve into "Hey when will this be ready" style of comments, there's an interest in doing it but nobody is personally willing to take on the challenge

Herbstluftwm VS Frankenwm?
- The commit messages - I run the git version, so I like to read about the latest features and fixes. These tend to be more verbose on a feature or fix than the docs, so it can be more helpful. - https://github.com/herbstluftwm/herbstluftwm/commits/master

What softwares do you recommend to a daily use BSD system?
The nicities that I pull would be the file browser from ROX, and a tiling window manager such as herbstluftwm. I could do everything I do today without these, such as with a terminal or OpenBSD's 'cwm', but I really enjoy using them!

Is there a way I can tell which exit node I am using from CLI in Linux?
I'd like to just be able to write a short shell script to check if an exit node is in use, and then pipe that output into polybar which I use anyway. The problem is that I can't find an option in the tailscale Linux CLI client that will show me whether I'm using an exit node or not. Is there a way to do this?

Are there any tools to analyse/modify colours directly from a bash script?
I am on Arch Linux and I am using pywal to generate a colour palette from my wallpaper, which I then use throughout my system. In particular, i have a bash script which grabs these colours and uses them for polybar. The problem is that sometimes these colours do not have enough contrast, and the bar is hard to read. Is there any tool that would allow me to check the readability of my colours, and modify them accordingly, directly from my script? If not, how should I be approaching this issue?

Polybar setup on XFCE
Hello, currently I am trying to get polybar setup on XFCE. I was getting an error along the lines of "background_manager: Failed to copy slice of root pixmap" and according to this GitHub issue, the only solution is to try and set the background another way, like using feh. My only issue now is that it seems like feh isn't actually doing anything whenever I use it to set a wallpaper. I believe this could be because of a conflicting system in XFCE that sets the wallpaper, how can I disable XFCE wallpapers?
