The young fellows love this eye candy, and so I do. You’re right, I need to give a tiling WM a try. I have already thought about how inconvenient constant switching between the keyboard and the mouse is, and how unergonomic touchpads are.

I love eyecandy as well! It’s what got me interested in Linux back when Beryl was a thing. :) However. When it comes to tiling window mangers, I personally find it distracting, but I completely understand the appeal of it for others. A lot of the desktop screenshots looks really cool, but I don’t see how people can be productive with all the bling. :D I’ve been a happy keyboard driven user for a long time now, and I can’t ever imagine going back to using the mouse for all the things. I still use it for my secondary web browser though, but that’s becasue a lot of websites sucks. :( I’m pretty sure that escaping most usage with any pointing device have saved my writsts from a lot of pain!
