Well I can still switch to cinnemon if needed, but im currently using i3 exclusively. For work, browsing the web, making music and play games once in a while.

It works great in i3 so I'm liking it so far. If linux Mint 22.3/23 has full Wayland support I might replace it with an Wayland alternative.

I never used Tiling Window Managers before, I started to like them like 2/3 weeks ago. (using linux since 2 years now). I was experimenting with cortile but that wasn't a good solution due to several bugs/instabilities. I3 seams to be one of the easier ones to customize, so I ended up using that instead.

If you want to reaplce i3 with a Wayland alternative, you could still get the i3 experience with Sway, SwayFX, or MiracleWM. I'm sure that'd be quite fine.

Thanks, that's good to know. I've been curious about going with a tiling window manager for a while now.
