I'm curious, what do you do about VLC if you use a tiling WM ?

  • Do you ignore the pain and still use a theme ?
  • Do you not use a theme and live with it messing up your nice color scheme ?
  • Do you just not use VLC ?

As someone that's been through all three:

I tried a theme but I couldn't be bothered much

So I stuck to default theme, knowing it ruined my colourscheme.

Now, I'm on MPV and everything works perfectly, except that I need to run it from a terminal because I really can't be bothered to do a drag n drop of a file into the mpv window. I'd recommend using mpv with window swallowing enabled for your terminal.

Alternatively, you can use an MPV frontend.
