I just got into arch and was so excited to see all the things on the reddit page, the community here is awesome so thanks for the tutorial it helps a newbie like me out so much

Nice slow paced tutorial 🙂
For anybody who followed the tutorial like me and noticed icons didn't render properly in the bar, this is because font-awesome is required:
`sudo pacman -S awesome-terminal-fonts`

dude, good stuff, I am just starting out on linux, and out of all other DE and WM, well I have tried a lot so far and i found i3 to be my favourite, and I just love this video where you did everything from scratch with no cut-editing, really warm and welcoming video. Keep up with these stuff, thanks a lot man, I sure hope there is a part 2 of this and other similar videos. happy linuxing

I finally got to customizing my i3 setup today and this video was a big help.

I’ve been seeing lots of videos about window managers lately and it’s really making me wanna get into them. Think I’ll make a VM tomorrow and start trying them out.

Another great video, Matt. I've heard of Bumblebee but I've never tried it or seen it used, so I might give it a go on my Fedora I3.

Also remember when your not facing your mic you volume drops off, so when you are typing and talking your not as loud as when you are facing your mic.

I know this is an old vid, so you prolly wont see this
but THANK YOU FOR SHOWING YOUR MISTAKES. I've been spending the better part of like, 2 hours trying to figure out how to change my border colors, turns out I just had to change the child_border setting, just like you. Thank you so much!

[qballup]

Nice video Matt. I primarily use DWM, but I always keep an I3 config as well.
I'll have to switch over to Bumblebee, I hadn't heard of it before, so thanks a lot.
It looks way better than i3 status.
