- Question about Swallow (if i am not mistaken)
-
bspwm swallow daemon "bspsw", interested in feedback/feature requests
Someone else mentioned https://github.com/Liupold/pidswallow here which should be DE/WM independent. It'll still only work in X11, though.
- Swallow Patch doesn't work with urxvtc/urxvtd [DWM + Flexipatch]

Gnome vs KDE
Or i3 with gnome for those who don't want to code up their own monitor hotplugging, ssh/gpg agents, media hotkeys, usb drive hotplugging, screenshots, theming, ...
-
Can you recommend me a GUI settings app that would work nicely with i3?
Similarly, I just use i3-gnome-flashback and get a full set of gnome desktop environment goodies without having to do anything much.
-
My bluetooth headphones' play/pause button not working
Yet another of the long list of small reasons I run i3 within gnome-flashback.
-
Using Exwm Do you recommend it?
For me with whatever tiling WM, I am not interested in creating my own Desktop Environment, so I run it within gnome-flashback to get all the desktop niceties like hot-plugging monitors, hotkeys for media, screenshots etc., ssh/gpg agent, compose key, and many more. I am not interested in rolling my own solutions for each of these in turn, only realize what I haven't set up yet right when I need it. See exwm-gnome-flashback, or i3-gnome-flashback.
-
Considering Gnome's default flow using workspaces, should Gnome or Ubuntu offer an official tiling WM option within Gnome? (screenshots of i3wm vs. Ubuntu 20.04 w/ pop shell)
gnome-flashback is the gnome ecosystem Desktop Environment that can have any window manager swapped in. I think that is what Regolith uses since they maintain i3-gnome-flashback, that I use.
-
EXWM vs. other tiling WM
In both cases I used gnome-flashback to get a curated Desktop Environment without having to roll my own - e.g. i3-gnome-flashback and exwm-gnome-flashback.
-
Automatically detect external displays and apply config to them
In my case, i3-gnome-flashback. As a result I have the typical desktop setup where the Gnome settings panel can control the monitor layout, and it remembers previously seen monitors and restores the layout.
-
Need for advice: tiling window software
To avoid having to build your own desktop environment, you can use it within an existing DE that allows alternate window managers. I use i3-gnome-flashback.
-
I have just installed i3 and I'm loving the feel of it, however it looks kinda ugly and it's very hard to find info's for beginners (imo)
