I’ll start:

  • RSS and blogs, news vs. social media
  • XMPP vs. WhatsApp/FB messenger/Snapchat
  • IRC vs. Matrix, Teams, Discord etc.
  • Forums vs. Social media, Reddit, Lemmy(?)

    i3wm

    It’s now more than a decade old and considered feature-complete 2 years back. But the basic usage is still the same since its initial launch. No matter how many versions of Windows or Gnome or KDE come and go, I use i3 in the same as I did when it launched. I don’t need “new” features because the existing features are more than enough.

      This. After the initial learning for i3wm I never looked back.

      And I dread the times where I have to use something else (work environment…)

      sway is the wayland based modern alternative that I use (and prefer). It does not do anything flashy and most i3 config options work just the same.

      I fell completely in love by the look and practicality of what i see and listen about i3wm. It all started when exploring unixporn on reddit.

      It’s one of the things that make me sad for not being linux-savvy and even if I was I couldn’t use it for my daily driver because my company/team work is based on the whole Microsoft Office ecosystem.

      So I just contemplate the minimalist beauty of it.
