Just curious about what desktop environment/window manager you use. Do you guys prefer tiling WMs or desktop environments? Personally I use i3wm, but I might change it up.

    I used to use a tiling WM (i3wm is great), but a couple years ago I simplified my workflow and switched to Openbox. Nowadays I alt-tab between 2-4 maximized windows (I do almost everything in Firefox and Emacs), and if I need two applications side by side I have a short-cut to snap the focused application to the left/right/top/bottom 50% of the screen, which is as much tiling as I ever need.
