If you are an experienced Linux user, there is a good chance that you are using a tiling window manager. They are a great choice for anyone that needs something minimal, fast, and customizable. Plus, Tiling window managers have a lot of variety to them. Whether they are written in different languages, tile differently, or even have different features, there are many tiling window managers that serve different purposes. However, this means that there are many tiling window managers that many people don’t know about, and to fix that, I am going to show you 5 of my favorite, less common tiling window manager. And hey, you might find one that you really like.

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.

Have you ever tried XMonad?
I had used sway for a year or so and liked it
Then a switched to river ( https://github.com/riverwm/river ) a few months ago, it’s also fine
I’m on a very slow mission to remove C/C++ from my setup, otherwise I’d still be on sway
Why removing C?
I prefer Zig, Rust, Go, and every other programming language that isn’t the cause of 70% of CVEs
Humans are just bad at managing memory safety, so why encourage the use of such tools?
