Because dwm is customized through editing its source code, it’s pointless to make binary packages of it. This keeps its userbase small and elitist. No novices asking stupid questions.
No need to deal with config files, you don’t know the location of. And I don’t know about i3 but many window managers use some really annoying configuration languages like xml.
I love that it exists, and allows you to manage your windows with such a low footprint.
But after reading up on it, actually using it and deviating from the defaults in any way sounds tedious for no real benefit.
I’m in a similar boat, seems way too annoying to keep it up, and there’s no real reason other than elitism to have it not have config files, at least for the basic stuff.
I like the idea of keyboard navigation in a tiling window manager. It’s probably more efficient than with a mouse but I don’t think it would make much difference for me. The most I use my machine for at once is a terminal, web browser and Freetube. If I used Linux for my job it might be more useful.

Lol. I know a few people like this. They are truly unpleasurable to interact with.
