Debian Experience So Far


Since my last blost on my Debian experience[1], I have switched my DE/WM thrice :D. I first switched to KDE from BSPWM, after some issues with screen flickering. After a few slow days with KDE, I switched to i3 (the first tiling WM that I ever used). I had fun playing around with a TWM again, and today after trying to customise i3 and finding the features I wanted weren't available on i3, I switched to the first Wayland WM on my Debian install; Sway.

Sway is essentially i3 on Wayland with loads more features and a lot more customisable/eye-candy, which developers of i3 say i3 isn't. Since installing Debian, I have experienced a much quicker system, compared with my previous installs of distros like Fedora.
