I use dwm in my laptop, but previously used i3wm for a few years. I’m curious about:

  • How well EXWM performs nowadays?
  • Is it resource heavy compared to other tiling window managers?
  • Is it still an issue EXWM not being multi-threaded?

My daily tasks involves just opening chrome, telegram and/or slack, watching movies and coding of course. Would it be a good fit for my needs?

I’d love to know your thoughts if you use or have some previous experience with EXWM. Thank you in advance!

    I loved it. If I don’t need to be on a MS Windows machine, I would use EXWM as my daily driver. On Linux it was without problems. Yes, make keybindings and functions for sound, brightness and applications I want to start was a little bit of work. A little bit work with the configuration of X, like the mouse pointer, etc…
