Thanks! Hmm, could be that it has stalled, though it's working great for me so I don't really know if it's a problem. I'm using the main repo.

Configuration is straight forward with a file but you won't be able to use it without keybindings.

Yeah, I think Hikari combines the best of both. In the rare cases I need to tile, it has that capability but in most cases I have 1-2 windows and find it easier to work with them when the windows are smaller.

Yeah I'd say so.

The only issues I've had is that pinch-to-zoom and fractional scaling does not work (but easily solvable).

Maybe, not sure how musl compares to glibc. I quite like Runit and xbps though so I don't feel like I'm in a rush.

I think it's very underrated. It has some features I really appreciate:

  • Tiling features when needed, W+l s tiles everything when I need it.
  • Great shortcuts, like go to next busy desktop, maximize height of window
  • Holding win reveals the title of the window.
  • Cursor follows active window

It matches my workflow very well.

A minimal desktop setup.

Info:

  • Programs: Emacs, Devdocs, pfetch, imv
  • WM: Hikari
  • OS: Void linux
  • Art by: Escher
  • Dotfiles

Recently switched from Guix to Void, mostly because it's much simpler and I felt that my desktop didn't need the complexity of Guix.
