Radicchio is using Window Maker as the only window manager on his desktops (Arch Linux / Arch Linux 32) and on OpenBSD VM-box when running of X Window System on the latter is required.

Q: Why to use Window Maker if there is a series of high quality sophisticated comprehensive desktop environments (DE) full of daily-handy features and visual attractiveness available for both Arch Linux and OpenBSD?

A: (a) It is quite attractive, (b) it resembles full-featured DEs in most cases like the <Alt-Tab> window switching experience, having window decorations with multiple functions on windows, with virtual desktops, and with globally accessible right-clicked contextual menus, (c) with little memory footprint, and (d) well-known to its apologist user how to configure it, tweak it, and relax with it. Despite its 1997th inception and having a set of approximately little functional changes which led to consider it an ancient window manager in some IT circles, Window Maker is continuously developed today and adopted by many Unix/Linux distros as the interest-deserving project. It is favorite and the only Radicchio's window manager in 2024 still.
