Does anyone actually use Enlightenment?
One of the first wow-moments when I first installed linux (2003ish) was Enlightenment. I though it was very pretty, and quite different from the mainstream WMs. It was presented as a feature, not a bug, that development was slow: the people behind it wanted to take the time it took to get it right.
So I waited. I always installed it on new computers, but it never seemed quite ready to use.
I did the same today, and the feeling is the same as in 2003: it's not quite there yet.
Hence the question: does anyone actually use it as their everyday WM?

in reply to gfom • • •Reasons it might happen: the blog post specifically mentioned wanting a new ui-toolkit that worked well with rust or go, but at that time s76 hasn't announced or dived into developing iced-rs more. I think it even mentioned hoping that s76 would build an alternative.
