The best old-school Linux window managers that still hold up
Briefly

Fvwm was the first desktop environment I used long-term. What immediately struck me with Fvwm was how efficient it was... Today's Fvwm has a sidebar with the Linux pager, a window list... you get both a left-click and a right-click menu. The left-click menu is the actual Fvwm menu, where you can launch applications, change wallpaper, read man pages, and access the restart/quit options.
Also, despite the old-school interfaces not being as integrated and full-featured as today’s systems, these nods to early Linux can be a lot of fun and still effective.
