Hi, I ve been exploring some wm and came across i3wm. Ive been loving the workflow for it. Currently im using lm cinnamon and installed i3 on top. But I think its a janky setup.
is there a way to get mint stability + workflow of i3?

Last time I set it up, i3wm basically does run “on top” or rather mixed in with componenets of other desktop environments.
Tehnically, one can run i3wm alone, but really, it wants a bunch of parts from another desktop environment to be loaded, and it’s not particularly opinionated about which ones.
If I recall correctly, picking it (a friendly i3wm meta-package) on Ubuntu gave me i3wm with a bunch of pieces of Mate pre-loaded to fill in the edges.
The previous time I set up i3wm, there was no friendly package (yes, I’m old), so I looked up the names of about a dozen Gnome services and applets, and added them to the i3wm config to launch them on i3wm start-up.
(Edit: missed an important not)
That’s not the same
Oh no!
Edit: You uave brought pedanticness, rather than value to the discussion. You can do better.
