I obviously meant tiling window manager setups, like you described.

And no I didn't say using the terminal means you're a showoff, I have it open all throughout my workday.

I was saying that TWM setups are poor in terms of usability. The Gnome workflow is perfect for people with ADHD. I can't really think of anything better.

OK. FVWM is a stacking WM. Btw, TWM is too a specific stacking WM and not an abbreviation for tiling WMs, some people even use it.

I have used tiling WMs in the past, DWM and WMII were nice.

Still I've mentioned FVWM and maybe WindowMaker (answering from mobile, not sure), both are stacking WMs, so no, not as I've described.
