For few reasons for this is:
- I generally don't like extraneous extra processes and apps running;
- I don't like tray apps in general (I don't know why... they just annoy me);
- I like bindsym-ming stuff I use often (rather than running a memory-resident application continuously);
Below is a quick overview of how I implement redshift with i3wm.
