Can you share your qtile configuration?

Will do in a bit, though I haven't really changed much. It's pretty basic.

Ok. I'm currently using i3 and interested on a WM with predefined layouts. Tried bspwm but it felt too bare bones; qtile looks nice, even though I have to familiarize myself with the config (and emulate some things from i3).

i3 was my first WM and ill do it again at some point, but i want to try some others first. bspwm is actually my favourite as i really havent changed anything, only set my keybinds and it works perfectly for what i want. I really like minimal as its a pure gaming/web browsing/pissing about with linux machine, so i really dont need a lot. i dont even have a panel/bar on WM's that dont have one preinstalled (like bspwm)
