Yea, I see. I use xmonad tailored to my needs tho, so that is why I want to use mu owb WM.

You're absolutely not the target audience for the wm. But... you still might want to be familiar with it, because it could totally be your foot in the door to set someone down that path. The cost of adopting pop's workflow is substantially smaller than creating your own from scratch, but it's intuitive enough to get someone to at least understand why it might evolve to something like your setup.

These days I just don't have enough time, and i've seen enough trends come and go that i'm happy with most of the pop defaults, and it's mostly just dressing for terminal windows anyway. There are totally better options out there, I just don't have the time to invest in one.

And anyway, most Debian and Ubuntu documentation is spot on for pop, which is a big advantage for anyone who is familiar with them or doesn't have the time or desire to solve their own problems.
