    And i always thought Real™️ linux users dont need a desktop manager? No wait they need arch with a tiled window manager because it looks cool but actually dont do annything besides configure their install.

      If you actually do work, getting used to a tiling WM is like a drug. I can’t live without it now.

      (that’s a lie, I do at work cus I’m forced to use Windows, so WSL with tmux is an acceptable alternative)

        Ok but what is your job then? I do software development and in no way would it make my work faster if i can type 2 more words a minute because i dont type that much. Most time is used to read sourcecode, chassing references through the codebase and reading api references in the browser. If i have to do more hardware related stuff i would never want to use a keyboard to scroll through datasheets.

          Software development too, but also lots of sysadmin-like stuff so I spend lots of time in terminals/SSH. And I’m a vim fanatic.

          Of course I also spend a lot of time in the browser, but also man pages/local docs in a pager
