Ehen I sat down to make this video. I wanted to build the most amazingly beautiful linux configuration for you all. Where all the colors matched perfectly, everything looked cohesive. And I did! check it out! this is a gorgeous hyprland config with really nice colors, etc… But what you don’t see, is the struggle it took to make this configuration happen. So today I want to talk about the horrible world of ricing your linux distro.
But tiling window managers come at a cost. You see, tiling window mangers are just that, window managers. When you install a window manager like i3 or hyprland (which is what I’m using here). You get almost no extra tools whatsoever on top of the tiling window experience. You don’t typically get an application launcher, or a terminal, or literally any nice-to-have tool really. think of things you would NEED like a lockscreen, system idling, all of that stuff.
