EndeavourOS i3 Edition - What's Not to Like?

time5 mo agoview3 views

I'm a fan of Arch and a fan of tiling window managers. So bring the two together in a distro that is easy to install and, to my mind, you have a winning formula.

To lay my cards on the table before I start I have to admit a bias. I've used Endeavour pretty much constantly for the last year or so and the distro is top tier in my opinion. What I haven't tried though is it's variant of i3, although I know @DistroTube took a look recently.

Overall I think this is a great way to get into i3 or to simply install a lightweight arch base for installing and configuring your own system.

I won't pretend that i3 has won me over compared to the likes of dwm, but at the end of this review I felt that i3 deserved more attention than I've given it so far.

I hope you enjoy the video :-)
