ruser | hello, can i get a lightweight modern tiling window manager recomendation please? | 16:17 |
lotuspsychje | ruser: apt-cache search tiling can give you some packages, and see also the community https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/ to get new ideas | 16:20 |
lotuspsychje | https://www.tecmint.com/best-tiling-window-managers-for-linux/ | 16:21 |
ruser | lotuspsychje: thanks, and while i have your attention, is there is a diff between `apt-cache search` and `apt search` (other than presumably cache?) | 16:21 |
ruser | i guess i ought to really read the man page | 16:22 |
lotuspsychje | ruser: hyprland is also pretty popular on unixporn https://hyprland.org/ | 16:23 |
ruser | oh hyprland looks pretty ) | 16:25 |
ruser | glad to see that i3 is still being used, it's been a while | 16:25 |
ruser | looks like in that best tiling WM link most are for X and not wayland. I've been out of the industry for a bit, is this a reputable source or just one of the hits? | 16:27 |
lotuspsychje | hyprland goes wayland | 16:28 |
lotuspsychje | and the link is still valid yeah | 16:29 |
lotuspsychje | it all depends what kind of franken(ubuntu)linux you want to create yourself | 16:30 |
lotuspsychje | the options are endless right | 16:30 |
ruser | sure, and how much time i want to spend on it :) | 16:30 |
lotuspsychje | heh | 16:30 |
lotuspsychje | and last but not least, ubuntu 23.10 has new tiling too | 16:31 |
lotuspsychje | didnt test myself yet, but i assume both xorg and wayland | 16:31 |
lotuspsychje | ruser: a lot of users swear by i3 on a server base too, great speed benefits | 16:34 |
ruser | so.... i'm trying to workout my boot issues and right now on 20.04 just got to a bootable stage, i want to get at very least to 22 LTS but I think my boot will break, and repair will be hard so i wanted to look at some utilities to address m y boot issues before i dist-upgrade | 16:35 |
ruser | yeah, in the past i've enjoyed xfce, ion, and i3 | 16:35 |
ruser | bb in a bit, walking doggo | 16:36 |
lotuspsychje | o/ | 16:36 |
_spk_ | ruser: If you liked i3 (I also used that for a few years at a previous $WORK) but want to use Wayland you could take a look at Sway: https://swaywm.org/ | 16:46 |
ruser | back, _spk_: great, this is the kind of recco i was looking for | 18:03 |
ruser | but also all the other stuff is great too thank you | 18:03 |
