I know I do.įor daily usage I really like kubuntu with i3wm, but it takes some configuration and getting used to the shortcuts, but it's well worth it. If you want a tiling window manager, you can use yabai or Amethyst on macOS.

Why BSD community is more willing to use macs then linux? Not exactly what you're looking for in terms for scrolling, but this allows resizing multiple windows.

Ask HN: Scrolling Window Manager for macOS?.

If you install yabai ( ) it has a feature that can completely disable spaces switching animations - but it does require partially disabling SIP (worth it for yabai, IMO).

I'm using yabai, but due to MacOS's IMHO stupid limitations regarding Windows, to be 'fully' working, it requires SIP (System Integrity Protection) to be disabled (fully or partially), which is a HUGE no-no for the Mac that I'm using. Use pkexec instead.What I've done is configure yabai and skhd in a way that somewhat mimics my i3 setup (dotfiles in case it helps) with the help of Karabiner-Elements since Apple wouldn't recognize my keyboard layout properly (or at all.). Note: Some distributions no longer include gksu. Use beesu instead of gsku with thunar in custom actions to allow “open Thunar as root” a little more on opening thunar as root this can be found at: -Ĭommand: gksu thunar %f (beesu thunar %f works for me & pkexec).Īppears if selection contains: Directories

Add this to your i3 config “exec picom -CGb &”.īlueman - add this to the i3 config “exec -no-startup-id blueman-applet” to start the sys-tray applet.īeesu (allows you to open programs as root) Lxpolkit - add this to your i3 config “exec -no-startup-id lxpolkit” then when you open gparted or thunar as root you’ll receive an access to prompt for the root password. (I find that XFCE appearance will not apply themes)

Nitrogen - add this to your i3 config “exec nitrogen -restore &” the iso does come with “feh” but I am lazy and prefer the GUI method for wallpaper management. Your choice of terminal like Terminator or xfce4-terminal To install from the live iso open terminal with meta + enter and type “liveinst” this will launch the Anaconda installer or meta+d type liveinst and start it that way.Īt this point I assume that if you are installing Fedora i3 you must be familiar with Anaconda. Meta = the windows key or the key you chose on initial i3 setup.
