In: s/Linux

and most importantly. what would you use to connect to wifi? i would suggest you avoid using heavy desktop environments, since they are already underlying complexity and heavy burden on the cpu. then how do you connect to wifi without ui tools?

i suggest using wpa_supplicant directly. you probably have network manager service in your distribution.

just disable it. use some lightweight window manager where you open your terminals. and wpa_supplicant to connect to wireless networks directly.

I am thinking about going terminal only. however I don't know how could I achieve it since I need some GUI apps for work and university. for IRC I could use weechat which would work fine but what about youtube,telegram,github? there is no way I could use them inside terminal. but what I could do is use as much terminal as I can!
