X-monad and i3 are two common tiling managers for Linux. They prioritize different ways of working. So one might click with you while the other feels awkward…I connected with x-monad’s interface and not i3 but you might find the opposite.
i'd recommend a cheet sheet for both (i no longer have a url to one i used years-past; there's probably many variants nowadays) - but i can say a background pic of common commands can be quite handy when using tiling wms (esp when not using as a daily driver)
Don't worry, in a couple weeks you will be using i3 as window manager, code in neovim, have a github repo of your dotfiles, and consider switching to Arch Linux
