i wish i had the patience and knowledge of linux wms to configure a wm i like but linux is absolutely cryptic

mate is ok but it's hard to find the programs i want other than memorizing terminal lines

fvwm was nice but crashed too much

xfce has good usability but looks awful

@squirrel I'm quite fond of i3 but that's because I'm one of those bizarre individuals who prefers tiling window managers

@troubleMoney i could never do tiling wms ever

i just want nice window trimmings but that's too much to ask from linux

@squirrel ah yeah, pretty and nice have never really been development priorities

I've heard some good things about pop!_OS being nice to use, haven't tried it myself though

@troubleMoney looks too modern to me

i honestly just want it to look like irix but usable in a modern context

@squirrel ah, cool

I'll see if I can think of anything irix-y

@troubleMoney the closest i got was fvwm on ubuntu but it crashed so often that i got too frustrated about randomly losing all of my work because it had no fallbacks it just brought the whole fucking thing instantly down and kicked you back to the login manager and whoops all your work is gone if you didn't save it

@squirrel eesh, yeah, that's not good

openbox might be suited to making it look like irix, that one's very customisable
