Hello,

Is there anyone using tiling window manager (i3 and similar)? I get easily distracted by stacking desktop environments and I found out that the minimalist approach works best for my ability to focus on learning and doing actual work with the computer. The less on the screen, the better and I don't mind memorizing some additional commands to get works done, if it reduces amount of information displayed at one time. It's not even about productivity - this approach just feels better and "cleaner", compared to bloated desktop environments like KDE.

Vimb is pretty good for that purpose (no menus, no tabs, no need for mouse usage most of the time), although it fails to load some websites and it can get buggy sometimes. Can you suggest any alternatives or ways to improve the experience with that browser?

I know this is off-topic, but just for information you can use this script to browse lemmy sites, it's compatible with all browsers

But if you want to browse all sites, as others mentions qutebrowser is the way to go
