Window manager

For my window manager, I use DWM because it is lightweight, fast, does the job, and allows me to learn C while configuring it. There is also a large selection of patches to DWM meaning you can modify it to your hearts content! What's not to like?

Web browser

For my web browser is librewolf, the only browser that - really cares about your privacy, whilst yes it is annoying being logged out of everything - but this is why password managers exist. - exist I just log on in a matter of seconds. I don't use many extensions but the ones I do use are - ublock , - KeePassXC , - Dark reader.

IDE

My IDE is Neovim, the reason why I use Neovim instead of something like Visual Studio Code is because it is simple and the keybinds are to die for, so if you want a simple easy IDE, I would suggest Neovim !

Password manager

I use KeePassXC for managing my passwords, I - used to use bitwarden but after a while I just thought I did not want my passwords in - somebody else's server so I switched to KeePassXC because it is offline, I use syncthing - to sync all my passwords from my laptop to my phone.

File manager

For my file manager, I mostly use Ranger. The main reason I use Ranger is because it uses Vim keybinds and well I just love Vim keybinds! The only problem is I still sometimes use thunar for small things like mounting USB sticks and interacting with websites, but apart from that I only really use Ranger!

App launcher

I use Dmenu for my app launcher because it works well with DWM and is simple and small !

Xorg or Wayland?

I like Wayland; it is smooth and modern. But I do not think it is fully there yet, so for - now I am staaying with Xorg, because it just works and I have had no issues with it. In the future, - in about a year (2025), I will switch to Wayland because it is much more modern, but for now, Xorg is my go-to.
