I want the easiest to configure/theme wm and one that comes with sane defaults. Also I currently use cinnamon, and I’m not sure how to escape from that(everything in it is just so nice) but I want the speed of a wm
If you’re looking for a floating wm then Fluxbox might be your best bet. Otherwise I’d try i3. It’s easy to configure and has a lot of documentation (it also features a floating mode I believe). If you’re looking for something in python then I would recommend either awesomewm or Qtile (my fav). Qtile is a bit more difficult than awesome to configure though, but it has a better status bar.
i3 is configured in it’s own configuration language thing which I personally find very easy to use and understand. Fluxbox on the other hand is, I believe, configured through a GUI though I’ve never used it so don’t take my word on that. Btw awesomewm is written in Lua not Python. Didn’t realize my mistake until just now.
My problem with qtile is it seems… just bad… The install instruction doesn’t work, and it was just a pain to install
Install instructions? I just installed it with my package manager and it worked fine.
