So Ive been using linux for a long time and mostly with gnome. I know about window managers and how using them will reduce the memory usage by system a lot because they are less bloated etc. I want to try a window manager on my nixos machine - this will be my first time trying one, I have good knowledge in programming so technical stuff wont bother me that much. Which window manager do you suggest? Customization is my priority.

    I’m a big fan of both i3 and enlightenment.

      I would say sway for Wayland support. Better yet, Hyprland is an awesome one and well supported in Nix. Maybe disable animation to reduce memory usage
