st. It just works. I'm always opening and closing terminals, and 90% of the stuff I use have's a TUI. st launches before I can even notice, under 4GB of RAM, and the entire install is less than a MiB.

AwesomeWM:

• 3 tags (term, web and files)
• A different layout for every tag (CornerSE, Maximize and Fair, in that order)
• Super+/ for a hotkey list
• Super+P for rofi -show run
• Super+C for a scratchpad with profanity
• Super+V for a scratchpad with cmus
• Super+X for a scratchpad with notes
• Super+~ for a quake term
• Most of the default Awesome keybindings

In the files tag I run terms and Thunar, in the web tag qutebrowser and everything else in the term tag.

dwm has a tiling layout in any case, and most TWMs do too, so there's no real reason to leave your TWM, even if you need/want foating windows.

I think they're talking about the tandem of tiling and workspaces, as usually you can customize your tiling per-workspace. Some TWMs have tags instead of workspaces, making it even better.

No recomendaría Manjaro ni la mayoría de los forks de Arch. Y pudieras agregar a la lista Debian Sid, aunque técnicamente no es una rolling release.
