Seeing Windows on a Thinkpad feels weird. I better go back to Unixporn to feel better.

My thoughts exactly... Where are the tiling WMs?

Arch+sway my beloved

As an Arch + Hyprland Thinkpad user seeing a beautiful Thinkpad being ruined by Windows hurts. Free them from their Microsoft prison already.

I don’t even use windows anymore apart from my work laptop, where I can’t install stuff on my own anyway, but that still made me look up options for tiling window managers on windows rn. (Tiling windows managers amiright)

Yeah I don't expect there are many tech employees working with Windows Thinkpads.

The X1 Carbon is one of the best developer laptops there is, but I would never tarnish one with Windows
