From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

bspwm - i do miss alt-tab from time to time.

I know there is a few sxkhd entries that sort of mimics it, but I miss something like gnome or cinnamon alt-tab

Nothing. But once Wayland supports xscreensaver or vice versa I’ll switch.

GNOME mouse navigation + I3/Sway keyboard navigation.

Some kind of easy notification system and panel/dock/taskbar notification emblems. The support for stuff like that is incredibly spotty right now and is one of the final things preventing me from switching off windows.

EDIT: Have found a decent solution to this via Dash to Panel. I have been running Zorin OS for over the last month now on my main PCs!

Custom per-folder themes in Nemo with drag/drop templating like os/2 had. Extend to all apps, actually.
