Hi there, I’m looking at floating window mangers as an in-between of DEs and escaping configuration hell (somewhat) of tiling Window Managers.

Specifically, I was looking at IceWM and OpenBox, but would love recommendations and discussion on what you like and why.

Cheers!

    For X, I’d probably go for Openbox. For Wayland, I have tried Hikari, but it reminded me why I don’t like floating window managers, so I don’t use it, but it seems really cool! Also, there is labwc which is supposed to be an Openbox replacement for Wayland, but I can’t tell you anything about it cuz I haven’t tried it.
