I wanted to get a feel for everyone’s thoughts on desktop environments (or window managers if you don’t use a DE). I’m new to Lemmy, so apologies if this is too low-effort a post.

Personally I’m running KDE on my main computer, but I have an Arch virtual machine I use for more experimentation. That VM has seen KDE, i3, and will probably see hyprland at some point soon

I am asking about your Openbox bindings

Win+ijkl moves the window to the next edge with the "MoveToEdge" function, snapping it around the screen.

Win+Shift+ijkl grows the window from any edge.

Win+Ctrl+ijkl shrinks the window from any edge.

Win+Cursor switches desktops, Win+Ctrl+Cursor sends window to other desktops.

It seems intuitive to me because ijkl is used for actions within the desktop, cursor keys (reaching farther) are for between desktops.

Makes sense to me too. That’s pretty nifty
