kinda glad I bounced off of the suckless ecosystem when I realized how much their config mechanism (C header files and a recompile cycle) fucking sucked

:( sadness. I'm pathologically opposed to software complexity (I mean pathologically, it hurts me) and have a really nice rice set up with dwm.

GNOME's new mosaic layout project which is a few years down the pipeline looks like it might solve the problem of tiling vs teenager's desk windows management so maybe I should switch.

I actually do like the patching thing, prefer it to xmonad which needs recompiling every day that ends in Y or i3 which is about as fun to configure as fellating one of those tubular cheese graters.

Taking suggestions on fast minimalist launchers and windows managers tiling ideally (and terminals with Unicode support rxvt suuuuuuuuuuucks) if anyone has them.
