From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

river is awesome, and I like it even beyond bspwm.

Unfortunately bspwm is better. Binary separation allowed for just about any layout imaginable, but river does not.

river has community layouts and I'm currently using bsp-layout, it's not the same as bspwm but somewhat similar. Also the developer of river is working on to separate the window management which will allow basically anything related to layouts.

Fortunately, you are wrong, there are BSP layouts for river.
