I can’t quit i3. I know there are better window managers out there, but I know I’m going to want to change all the key bindings to feel like i3. I really want to try a dynamic tiler though.
I’m in the same boat. The thing that I miss with i3 is a way to layouts. I like my windows mostly fixed but if you close one, everything needs to be redone. Oh and there’s no way to work without stacking and tabbing…
I bounce around a lot, mainly between Qtile and Awesome WM because I like how it handles multiple monitors. You should check it out, there’s loads of premade configs on GitHub.
YOU broke Lemmy. Insert really poor quality image of a lamentably bad site logo to help drive home the issue that “this is funny you have to laugh” because obviously we’re not specifically blaming you the user for doing nothing out of the ordinary even though we totally are and that’s “the joke” funny ha ha you need to laugh but you don’t need a helpful error message because we’re cool and edgy like that.
Don’t get it. Just drive over there, it’s not that there’s a border of some sorts. About 2 hours on the Autobahn from here (no speed limit btw, could crank my shit box to 166mph if I want it to die soon)
So it wasn’t just me? I felt like lemmy was 10 times more active than reddit since i switched bc im mainly interested in linux. That should mean most of reddit doesnt care about linux then :/
My neovim config is a total mess :D. But yeah i3-msg+jq is great, I’ve written a number of solutions to this problem before using the API and external scripts, but it’s nice having things inline in the config file
I have a folder with config files that I source, one for plugin installs, one for custom commands and hot keys, one for themes (I have a script to manage light and dark modes by time of day), one for project specific file type augroups. I’ve got a bunch of scripts in my home/.bin folder that parse different project files into json on git commit, and then I use vim script and FZF to do custom completion helpers and jump tools with that data. Then there’s my snippets folder…
I can never leave vim. It has taken over the pathways in my brain.
Nice, sounds pretty cool. FZF is great, I need to try out some new things with it. Never got into snippets but I’m sure that speeds things up considerably, will think about it.
Yeah separate config files is probably the best approach if you have a lot of things configured. I haven’t done that yet, but might try soon. My config has generally been pretty simple, mostly bindings and plugin settings. But I started developing in the TTY and had to shoehorn-in a conditional theme and such to get it to work properly, leaving it pretty unorganized.
