I’ve used Openbox as a minimal DE replacement for years, with Tint2 as panel and pseudo launcher. When I switched to EndeavourOS a couple of years ago Rofi came pre-installed along with those as window switcher, search and app launcher.

At the time it seemed superfluous and I just flat out uninstalled it, but now I’m coming around to maybe ditching Tint2 (and the stodgy old JGmenu that EndeavourOS uses) in favour of using Rofi as a search based launcher and menu.

I can imagine it’ll be an abrupt transition but my question for the more seasoned Rofi users out there is, what should I look out for and what are your immediate caveats?

    I like tofi as a wayland alternative. Unfortunately like so many of these projects it seems to be somewhat recently unmaintained.
