I have two questions. Forgive me if they are extremely stupid.
1) Can you minimize a window in dwm ? And in WMs in general ? (when using just them, without a DE). I'm asking because I'm actually keeping a lot of programs open usually (currently still in Windows), like several terminals, notepad++, 2-3 browsers (and FFX and Chrome usually have 2+ windows opened too), PHPStorm, Skype, Teams, File manager(s) and task manager. And some I don't REALLY need to keep them open at all times, but I do like the instant switch.
2) Can you install and run something like Firefox without a DE and a WM ? I assume that yes, you can, provided you have a ... graphical system (??) like X ? I might confusing a lot of stuff here. I'm just curious what is exactly needed for what.

@ishashka I was thinking of trying it out on my 4,5 yo laptop too. With 6700 HQ. Thing is, the laptop CPUs are actually a bit better on the efficiency than normal desktop CPUs. Sure, lower performance, but much less power draw too. In the end, after seeing what somebody computed in another comment here, and knowing that I don't have a new, efficient (7nm or 10nm) CPU, I realized that I better not waste time trying it.
Bottomline, you might have the efficiency, but if you consume $4 of electricity and make $5 of Monero... why bother ? :)

I really hate how the tabs look now. I was on a very classic title bar + menu bar + tabs bar, with lots of tabs. Now, before they were gray, with nice borders and clearly delimitated. Now they're bigger, whiter, much uglyer, shorter on the horizontal scale, things like the playing audio tab is now a stupid text which doesn't even fit, while before it was an instantly recognizable icon.
So in the end the whole bar is much uglier, I have less information and it's harder to find stuff in it. Like actually seeing which tab is playing audio when another tab is opened and the whole tab shifts and I have to go back to the tab with the video. I have 0 (read: ZERO) benefits from this change and only headaches. Not huge ones, in the end I can live with it, but the fact that it's all for absolutely nothing makes it 10 times worse.
Instead of useless changes, how about separate stop and reload buttons in the address bar that we had before Firefox ?? How about allowing to customize the address bar so things like "bookmark page" and "Reader view" can be taken out and maybe back, forward, stop, reload and home can be added in ? I know, I might be able to change some with themes. I didn't bother.
