Another i3 user here. I slowly transitioned from KDE when switching keyboard layout stopped working as well as some other DE related things.

Ended up writing custom script for switching. Currently implemented with rofi in Perl, bc I like the syntax.

I still like having a bit nice gui, so i have wallpapers, some icons, etc. But I fell in love with terminal ~~along with neovim : )~~ , soo kinda looking for that middle ground between look, performance and functionality.

Haven't finished tweaking all the configs to my liking, but after that vanilla Arch is the direction I plan to go, since many things in my current install that I have as well as haven't customized work a bit questionably or exist for no reason.

What? I know it's a bit chaotic, but can be more readable than bash sometimes imo. Originally chose it because writing stuff for sed was getting too complex at some point and saw suggestions to use Perl for complex regex instead.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
