I found my USB thumb drive that I recently purchased. Finally, I have a purpose for it; turn it into a bootable drive for Linux Mint. It’s going to be blazing fast! I’ve watched so many videos on the latest versions. It just looks like fun. Is anyone out there rocking Linux on their daily driver? #asknostr #nostr

I am enjoying Linux Mint very much. We’re doing a test drive off the usb bootable drive and it’s remarkably fast. What is i3 window manager? Does it help your workflow?

i3 is a tiling window manager, it's a more keyboard-driven workflow.. ..it helps use the mouse less and it uses multiple workspaces more efficiently.. ..it can be customized more than a traditional desktop environment too.. ..link: https://i3wm.org

..here's one of my screenshots that shows the tiling:

That is cool! Big fan of using my keyboard over mouse.
