They run the site for free and there's basically no adds. You expect them to afford capabilities for 100s of people doing 30-40 rom downloads at once?

I remember in high school when I set up my environment up similar to this with the cube workspace. Now I just think it's more inconvenient then instantly hotkeying to a specific workspace

It's all the former reddit users. That place breeds "intellectuals" who try to one-up everyone and prove they're smarter. If things don't fit in with their paradigm or echo chamber they down vote.

I admit you're right Q, regrettably so... Nonetheless, this poor individual deserves our help.

 

I've been ricing my desktop slowly over the years (don't have a lot of time). I've gotten it somewhat down to what I like. I use Archlinux with Open box, polybar, and rofi. I don't use a desktop environment. My question is what are my options for ricing default applications like dolphin or similar apps with default gui's (xsensors) without using a packaged desktop environment. I believe my default theme and icons are Adwaita (GTK-3)

 

I want to know your opinions on the best distro that is convenient for laptops. Main reason is I want to really optimize hardware performance and more specifically battery life for my University classes. I also want to try a tiling manager as they seem perfect for laptops.

Things of note:

  • Convenience/Performance is key
  • My laptop is a Thinkpad E15 w/ 16 gb ram
  • On my home desktop I run Archlinux w/ Open box & no DE (I've been using Arch for years but haven't used another distro since Ubuntu in highschool)
  • I will likely dual boot with Windows 10 for Office
  • I want to run a tiling manager
  • I don't video game
  • I wont be using a mouse
  • I don't necessarily want to use Arch, want to try something new that I don't have to rely on AUR updates for certain software
