The fact that you have to set up i3 threw config files yourself may be
nice for some people, but for some, not so much. Some of us actually
have things to do besides play with software.
It's as simple as that.

What specifically didn't you like about I3?
I'm genuinely curius, since Ratpoison seems carried less in terms of
distros than I3. If I could get a VM up and going (thank you qemu) I'd
give i3 a go to compare it.
Don't get me wrong. Ratpoison is great. However, on this machine, it's
either build it from source, since it's not in the repos and the
distro[s attitude is well, we ship I3 why should we ship
Ratpoison....or a draining and complex desktop

Hi guys,
I've tried my hand at i3, but, just, no. RatPoison with the
Strychnine (spelling) tool for setup works better in all ways for the
blindy.

Hi,
Yes, I use I3WM as my daily driver on Arch Linux. The trick with being
productive with I3 is to configure its config file (mine is in
~/.config/i3/config).
The manual is straightforward. Since I do not do the taskbar checking,
that is where you may have problems for checking notifications and
battery status etc.

So, I was told the other week I3 works with Orca.
Anyone had any luck with getting i3 to work with Orca up till now? I
mean, if it can be made to work, it'd suit my laptop more than a full
fledged desktop. So I'm stil curious on this
