Reimagining User Interfaces: The Tiling Window Manager Revolution
As technology evolves, so too must our interaction with it. The limitations of traditional desktop metaphors are becoming increasingly apparent, prompting a shift towards innovative solutions like til...

Me, watching 80s sci-fi in the 90s:
"That's cute, but there's no way computers will work like that. GUIs are the future!"
Me, in the future:
"Thank God for #TilingWindowManagers, I almost never have to touch a mouse!!"
OK OK OK OK OK OK OK... I've been trying #riverwm a little more seriously over the last few days and... you know what? It's pretty damn good.
If my opinion means anything to anyone, #river is becoming a pretty decent bspwm stand-in for wayland I think.
Still alpha, a way to go yet, but the plans for v0.3.0 are looking good (rules, one-shots, ssd/csd, ... code move to Codeberg).
It may actually be the WM that makes me stop moaning about #Wayland so much, which is quite a statement coming from me!
(Disclaimer: I still, obviously, adore bspwm and have no plans on ditching it any time soon, but I like to have fallbacks/future alternatives planned for in advance!)
I've used a variety of traditional desktop environments ever since I started using Linux, but I've never really had a reason to try any tiling window managers.
Now that Wayland is here, I am really interested in trying out either Hyprland or Sway. I'd really like to know what you all prefer and why.
@e33io Just watched this video by @BrodieOnLinux and now I feel MUCH better about giving #TilingWindowManagers a try.
Oh, and give Brodie a follow.
@e33io Good video by @thelinuxcast about #TilingWindowManagers. I’ve been thinking about trying one out, & Matt’s demonstration certainly helped. His use of workspaces instead of windows is similar to what I’ve been trying out in GNOME, just with keyboard shortcuts instead of trackpad gestures… 
Think I might have to throw #Manjaro #i3wm on a spare SSD and give it a whirl.
#macOS used to be the #DarkSide. Then it was #Linux. Now I think TWMs might be the TRUE “dark side.”
@chadmichael @dsbeans No problem, I prefer a mostly vanilla #gnome experience as well, although I pretty much exclusively use #tilingWindowManagers these days
@tommi @ademalsasa @9to5linux @aral @mirkobrombin
I wouldn't know. I personally exclusly use #tilingWindowManagers
@survey voted GNOME as @pop_os_official is my daily driver, but also using #Sway on a personal machine as I want to experience what all the people I’ve heard rave about #TilingWindowManagers are loving.
Riced my friend's computer, ready for the new online semster!
