Excellent! I love it!
Saw someone mention focus follow mouse. Cannot live wihtout that.

* Desktop Distro - Ubuntu Server LTS (less bloat, longer support)

* WM - LXDE or fvwm2 - depends on how lazy I am during setup

* Browser - Firefox for 70% daily use, bank and brokerage sites get 29% Chromium
in a protected VM, 1% use of minimal browsers for terrible websites with too
much garbage to limit tracking; New account, minimal browser, surf, blow away
account, all better.

I've been migrating the same .profile and .fvwmrc forward since the mid-1990s.

My desktops run on low powered Netbooks or using remote access to a private
cloud via NX, so all the desktop-cheese just slows productivity.  Many custom
keyboard chords have been created to launch favorite apps.  I'd love a
tablet-friendly NX client.
