It's not mentioned here so I'll add it: gnome-flashback is the thing that you can use to integrate your window manager of choice w/ the gnome shell. I expect there to be integrations for other window managers, but if you're using i3, then this is your bridge: https://github.com/deuill/i3-gnome-flashback

Thanks for mentioning Regolith and I'm pumped to hear that you find it useful!

Mod + / should bring up the shortcuts xisukar. The i3 config file binds to those keys and toggle launches conky. If it's not working for you please file an issue.

Hi addicted, yes you can do both of those things by editing the i3 config file. Details on the internals page of the site.

Great! Would love to get feedback on your experience!

While I agree that Regolith is mostly "skin deep", there are some aspects that transcend just theming, for example gnome integration. Regolith is not intended as a replacement for those happy and comfortable with building packages from source and hand tweaking configuration.

Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback. I haven't had those problems with gnome-settings, but I'll see if I can reproduce the issue.

I have added a screenshot to regolith-linux.org that shows a workspace without gaps.

I see your point. I guess my meaning was more about things on the screen, rather than a lightweight GUI stack.

Hi mastrsushi, super-+ and super-- interactively change the size of the gaps and they go to zero. You can edit the i3 config as well to hard set them at 0.
