Here's a video of my workflow if anyone's interested! All the credit for the gorgeous implementation of the tiling goes to the devs over at PaperWM! Better than some tiling WMs that I've tried!

btw how the loading time? For me even without extensions, the time between the login screen and usable desktop is very high.

It's about 1-2s for me which is fast enough

Wait really? It takes like a whole minute for me

That's weird. Is it a specs issue? What distro are you running?

I had a Bad ssd that had a similar effect. Even though it passed the badblocks test every time. Maybe there is something in the logs about the controller.

I'm running gnome on Arch. Im using a hard drive so that might explain it. Also it sometimes unexpectedly freezes(might be my nvidia gpu). I've spent months scouring forums and chatting with fellow users but non have found any way to increase the speed.

Yeah that explains a lot... An ssd will make a giant difference, and they're really cheap right now
