Comments and Reviews
Having tried several window managers, BSPWM is the only one that works consistently without fuss. I believe this is largely due to its simplicity, requiring just a single configuration file and allowing you to launch other tools when it starts. Even its intended keybind manager, SXHKD, is a seperate piece of software and totally optional.
