@Mojeek @werwolf I saw your article (ebin.city/~werwolf/posts/ratpo). I was recently considering installing it, but found maintenance has stopped some time ago.. that it's a dying wm. I suppose if you've been happily running it, there is no reason to jump ship but the days may be numbered. I'll be steering clear of it since it's a dormant project.

I thought it was Dissenter that was not being updated. I use Brave on my Debian box and it's uprating all of the time. I will have to look into this article. At the end of the day is it any worse than FF or Chrome?
@Mojeek @werwolf

@bufordk @werwolf @Mojeek I suggest if you want something Chromium based (which the use of Brave implies). I wouldn't trust in light of them collecting donations without telling the so-called beneficiaries, & whitelisting Twitter ads. Note that ungoogled chromium is is a cocktail of mods that they see on other chromium forks like Brave.

@resist1984 @Mojeek ratpoison has received sporadic updates in the past, so we may see another one anytime. The devs said that it's feature complete. And I've been using it for 5 months as my only WM.

@werwolf @Mojeek thanks for the tip. Perhaps i'll still consider Ratpoison then. i have to decide between ratpoison & sway.

@Mojeek @werwolf i installed and quite liked it. But it looks like i have to ditch it since it doesn't do well with dual displays. The default resolution was lower than the native resolution of my LCD. When I increase it in xorg configs, the two frames overlap and mirror part of the other frame. So I guess i'll have to move to
