-I don't use a desktop environment. What I actuall use is the LXDE desktop environment, but I install each component by hand.- -- DT
I'm just messing with you, great video as usual. I learned something about lxsession, I learned that AwesomeWM and DWM have their own built-in panels, system trays, and launchers.

Such a strange disconnect when going from Windows to Linux. Things that would seem most integral to have is just optional in Linux because everything is optional.
Stuff like a Settings GUI. I've been using Linux for a few years now, but it's still surprising to learn about some of this stuff.

I tried to use your xmonad some time ago but xmonad didn-t start. It had something today with you using multiple monitors. I could not figure out how to get the settings right for just one monitor. Have to dig deeper I guess. Thanks for this video. As always, a pleasure to watch.

I highly recommend the mate file manager caja, its fast, it doesn't have many dependencies, and unlike thunar and pcmanfm it has a fully functional and intergrated search, it also has handy features like it plays audio files when you hover your mouse over them.

But I really don't want to configure a wm + daemon, bcaz I'm lazy AF, I just want to run arch+KDE which I don't consider bloat at all, bcaz I literally use all of the KDE services + I have a beefy hardware, that can run anything without any issues.

For file managers there's SpaceFM which I believe started as a fork of PCmanFM. It has a ton of nerdy options. It's too busy for my taste but if you want epic customization in a GUI then it delivers

I would love to know what your recording setup is i feel that your sound is really good. So would be interesting to know your setup.. hardware and software. Anyone know if it is listed somewhere?

I actually started using i3 gaps on every one of my computers, and I really love using xfce-panel and many applications from the xfce family because of performance, theming and consistency

Nice, though I've been using just i3 (w/ a ton of hotkeys and bash_aliases) for years and never needed anything extra. All of these extra packages and configs might intimidate DE users.

Hey DT. Caja is a great file manager with not a lot of dependencies yet very feature rich.
I'm a KDE user myself, but I strip out a lot of it. -
