Tiling WM Users: What's your favorite?

[cardinals_fan]

What's your favorite tiling WM? Mine is Xmonad.

Mods, feel free to move this to recurring discussions if necessary.

I've only been using wmii for 2 days - but I love it.

Never could settle into a tiling WM. I voted Awesome though, because I came really close to switching to it, but I couldn't find a way to use a system tray without it being annoying, and I can't live without a system tray (because of apps like emesene and deluge).

Xmonad is nice too.

The first one I used was dwm, but then I didn't really know what the heck it was supposed to be, and I didn't like it. It may actually be better than I seem to recall, but I'm biased. I have it on my feisty machine, but I'd rather use something else.

Then I learned what twm's were all about, but since I already hated dwm, I tried awesome instead. It's ok... I guess... but I got more than just a little confused with it. I don't hate it. I just never got a hang of tags and such.

So I use Xmonad now, not always, and not for everything, but I like it. It may not be the fanciest, but maybe that's what I like about it. It's easy enough.

So I'm going to try wmii again tomorrow, since the interface is kinda like Vim, and last time I didn't give it a proper try.

Alt + Shift + C

I even use that (well try to) in Windows and GNOME.

I use xmonad at the moment, because I like its defaults over wmii.

I haven't tried all of them.

doesn't get any simpler than dwm. it might not do everything you want, but i love the philosophy. it's the gym shorts and plain teeshirts of wm's.

Sad, but I've never used any of those I use Openbox, but it's not a tiling WM so it doesn't count as a vote.

Ratpoison. Its the fig leaf of wm's.
