Linux

I don't

I've been very happy with hyprland since it's the only Wayland TWM that allows a great experience with nvidia.

When I was using it, I LOVED Hyprland. It was my most flawless experience with Wayland on an Nvidia GPU. I switched off of it however, because I primarily game on my PC and a lot of games just didn't work and I did not want to have to figure out how to get them working all the time.

This is perhaps cheating, but after diving deep into the hardcore tiling mangers (ratpoison, wmii, xmonad), I grew softer and stayed in awesome for a while, but eventually I realised that since all I want from tiling anyway is the ability to quickly place two windows beside each other, I might as well go with a DM that does all the other stuff I want automatically (mounting, monitors, etc.), and since KDE is now good again, and coming along on the tiling side, that's the tiling WM I'm using.

Yes, I said I was cheating ...!

I've tried AwesomeWM but couldn't get anything going with it really.

I then moved on to Material Shell (yes that's a Gnome Extension) and it brought enough to really make me want to dig in more.

Now I'm slowly working on a Sway configuration on my Fedora 38 machine. Can't work in it yet, but unlike my attempt at AwesomeWM...I'm actually making progress on getting things setup. My 4 monitors were configured fairly easily, but now I need to figure out why dmenu isn't working to launch applications. Could be on my end since I'm using a Moonlander keyboard with a custom DVORAK profile.

I started with for a bit awm, however i am giving qtile a try since im learning how to code python so good practice.

Sway, but used everything from ratpoison back in the day, awesomewm, i3, hyprland, openbox with manual tiling to Plasma. Just keep coming back to sway, seems like the best for for me.

herbstluftwm - because it just works and does not try to think for me;

The configuration is a shell script using herbstclient to talk to the wm process, that's a plus for me, too.

I like i3, at some point when I finally move to Wayland I'll move to Sway. Going to try Hyprland as well though, 'cause why not

Currently using sway, but mostly for the lack of good Auto tilers on Wayland

I used suckless ecosystem for 5+ years, but I wanted to use Wayland so now I'm transitioning into Sway and holymoly how fast and easy it is. So simple to configure and written in C.

I'm on Hyprland (wayland compositer, wl-roots based). Prior to the wayland transition I was on dwm. Hyprland offers a dynamic tiling layout just like dwm, which was my main selling point. The dev is very active and hyprland is gaining maturity rapidly (more than alternatives like dwl or river did at the time I checked it out). I also tried i3 and sway, but they don't quite cut it for me as they don't do dynamic tiling out of the box.
