Would you recommend EXWM as daily driver? (alien.top)

I use dwm in my laptop, but previously used i3wm for a few years. I'm curious about:

  • How well EXWM performs nowadays?
  • Is it resource heavy compared to other tiling window managers?
  • Is it still an issue EXWM not being multi-threaded?

My daily tasks involves just opening chrome, telegram and/or slack, watching movies and coding of course. Would it be a good fit for my needs?

I'd love to know your thoughts if you use or have some previous experience with EXWM. Thank you in advance!

For the lost focus in x windows, you may try (setq x-no-window-manager t).
