Remove compton
Over time compton became unmaintained and a replacement package picom
took its place. After trying out sway for a bit, I realized that it
doesn't need a separate compositor at all like bspwm does, so I might
just switch to it. Note that there is a performance penalty on sway
that I haven't figured out how to solve yet.

bspwm

bspwm is a tiling window manager for X11.

Use Cases

bspwm can be used to:

  • Automatically tile all kinds of windows, maximizing screen estate
  • Have complete control of your window manager through simple shell commands
  • Minimize resource usage; bspwm works best without a desktop environment

You should not use bspwm if:

  • You are using a desktop environment
  • You just want to open multiple shells (use kitty or tmux for this instead)
