    We're winning, man. Vixen is a fork of Ratpoison with minimal bugs and a close adherence to what Ratpoison aspired to be: the ACTUAL "antidesktop". There's really no difference as it regards UX, but there is a greater focus on performance and cleanup in the unseen layers. By default, it includes "warpd", a keyboard-controlled pointer program, "windchime", a functional, extremely small notification daemon, and "owl", a basic screenshot and screen capture tool, all of which were written in pure C for X11, which means Xlibre therein. I'm on the fence about whether or not it's bloatware, but many of the programs are here because they are, again, very tiny and help a lot with getting started. You could edit the Makefile of contrib/ to your liking and easily be rid of them. Any issues? Don't worry. I won't Sway you to death. Make a merge/push req and I'll read it myself.
