I tried AwesomeWM two days ago, and after two days of hard work understanding the API reference, I came up with this. More screenshots are below.

I wish I could upvote you twice; once for the picture and once for choosing to use “customization”.

I use JetBrains Mono font. I am not sure what you meant by font rendering, so if you’re interested, you can check my dotfiles.

I used to be in love with Awesome but I think it’s been more than 10 years since I used it last. I remember the software being wonderful and the people in the people in the community being stereotypical, smug, “rtfm” types… That was more frustrating than anything else about Awesome.

I experienced this too. That’s why I stopped asking them anything after my first query (why my keybindings were not working when defined in another file) and relied on guess work. I also found the community kind of dead, so you don’t actually get the answers quicker than the guess work will get you there.

Question: do you like the text min/max/close buttons over colored circles or icons?

Yes, I like text more than visual icons. More proof is given by the fact that I used words like cpu, mem, net over the thousands of icons I could’ve used instead, considering that the font I am using is a Nerd Font patched one.
