This is amazing!
I'm new to Linux and few days ago I learned what rice is and I can't stop digging into it. For example Rofi to launch apps is great and I wouldn't even think to search for something like this.
Do you guys have any advice what are some cool things to get? For example task bar replacement ECT.
What window manager do you use? Also do you know about the xorg vs Wayland debate?
I'm not sure, I'm on Linux mint cinnamon currently if that helps. And nothing about the debate. (sorry for my lack of knowledge and not being precise)
Cinnamon uses the muffin window manager (wm). Window managers are the things which decide how your windows are laid out. When you open a Firefox window for example, it decides which workspace it will open on, how large it will be, if it will be full screen, if it's gonna only be on the right side of the screen, etc.
Here's what xorg and wayland are. Some bars are meant for specific window managers, and some work for all xorg window managers or all wayland window managers. So what you're using is important when suggesting a bar.
If you're interested in learning, I'd recommend installing Arch and going with a more minimal WM such as i3 (my personal favorite). This'll require a fair bit of time and research filling in functionality that your current setup handles for you, but you'll learn a ton and end up with a fully customized system you know the ins and outs of. Such is the beauty of GNU/Linux :]
Heh, after your last comment I went and searched info about Arch. I feel like it's kinda above my pay grade as for now. I was always into 'minimal' approach, that sounds great. I have dual boot mint/windows and I'm afraid I'll break something if I'll try to go with Arch.
Certainly fair - Mint is a great distro. Enjoy the journey
