feel free to list other window managers you’ve used.

I have been happy with bspwm, but considering trying something else. I love its simplicity and immense customizability. I like that it is shell scriptable, but it is not a deal breaker feature for me.

I like how the binary split model makes any custom partition possible.

    Recently I have been using river. It’s extremely easy to configure via a shell script, and it’s very fast and stable. It’s another dwm clone

        The binary split tree is bspwm’s best and most important feature imo. I’m sad river doesn’t follow that model.

          River defers Layout management to an external program (rivertile). If you want a layout based on a binary split tree, you can write your own so-called layout generator
