I mostly saw the value from watching Twitch coding streams. I found "The Mouseless Dev" book really helpful in setting up Archlinux with i3 and VIM as a guideline to try it out, then once I saw the value spent some time setting up MacOS with Yabai and similar hotkeys to my Archlinux setup. I'll say, it's pretty much increased my productivity by 3-4x and keeps my mind fully engaged on the coding task at hand.

The main feature that requires SIP to be disabled is managing multiple workspaces without animating the swap between them which saves a ton of time and is key to the seamless feel. There are some workarounds of course, but there's no way to get around the 1-2s animation without turning off SIP.

Glad there's someone else who's seen the light, I'll never go back :). I wish it was more natively supported, it might make me make the switch to MacOS for good (well if they fix their new trash keyboards and ditch USB-C).

The hardest part for me was finding a good dotfile to base my hotkeys off of, and it's not quite as performant of course.

Yabai is awesome and a complete game changer on MacOS with skhd setup as a hotkey daemon. I set it up to mirror my i3 setup on ArchLinux and couldn't be happier. Switching to that and VIM per "The Mouseless Dev" book sped up my coding speed 3-4 times within a few months. I recommend everyone try to make the switch, but few are brave enough to do so.
