True minimalism!!! I definitely have to try it 🤣

"Mwm: an X11 window manager in 20 lines of code

Is KDE too much for you? GNOME tries to do too much? Xfce still a bit too fancy? Do you need something smaller? Even more minimalist? What about a mere 20 lines of code which provide the absolute barest possible minimum of window management functionality?

You need mwm."

Reading man pages is important. When you realize that a switch left your long term RAM you usually type man command.

However just opening a manual of a DE you use daily can show you stuff you did not know were (easily) possible

Im working again with a few WM and DE I had left for various reasons.

man is my friend

On the Frootloop Monkeytosh computer front the key thing is: AeroSpace: github.com/nikitabobko/AeroSpa

If you're a "tiling" Window Manager user like me then AeroSpace totally transforms the Mac experience. You can almost forget there's a mouse attached. It's all very familiar if you're an XMonad* user. It isn't quite perfectly seamless, but it's a whole other world of usability for me.

I've got quite a nice modernised setup working at the moment, with AeroSpace, iTerm2, Fish shell, Atuin shell history, and Neovim... still more to enhance, I've barely dipped my toe in with Neovim's capabilities (and currently have nothing like my old vim uber-config running, that's on the TODO list.)

* My dev-box window manager history is: WindowMakXer => FVWM => PWM => Ion => XMonad... admittedly this home desktop currently runs XFCE because I've never really needed it to be a hardcore coding environment.
