This is awesome stuff. If you fullscreened MobaXTerm and autohide the Windows taskbar then what are the problematic points vs running a linux/i3wm natively? Do certain keystrokes get intercepts by Windows regardless? You mention Firefox have you tried Chrome/Chromium in i3wm? Can you play a HTML5 youtube video?

Thanks for writing it up, interesting stuff! - An i3 user



I hadn't found any keystrokes that were masked by windows, but most of what I do is ALT+something, I use ALT as my meta key in i3.
