i3 is a very good wm
I just installed & ran I3. I have a couple of issues.
1. it breaks Thunderbirds "n" to go to Next Message in another folder.
So you have to constantly use the mouse to move to the next folder
2. You can no longer click on web links in Thunderbird , nothing
happens.
3. When I went back to Trinity WM and ran Thunderbird, it was in
fullscreen mode with no way to resize the window. I googled & found a
workaround, but I don't think I3 plays nice with Thunderbird, so that
won't work for me..

I am not a thunderbird user, but I have never noticed that problem.
Maybe you messed yourself with your configuration? Can you show us the
configuration file you used and describe exact steps to reproduce?
Anyway, I tried thunderbird (icedove in facts) to reproduce your bug,
and indeed, I had bug. Network is no longer usable on the computer on
which I did the try :) it's not really fun, I'll have to debug it
now... I'll ask for help on another thread if I can not do it myself (
even localhost seems damaged btw, so at least it is not hardware
failure ).
Ok, problem solved by simply waiting... strange. Anyway, I can not
reproduce your problem, here, pressing 'n' goes to next unread message.
Is it what it should do? If yes, then it works fine.
I would really like to see your i3 configuration file and know your
steps. My bet would be that you had this "issue" when using an i3 mode
where the key 'n' was binded, so when i3 received 'n' it thought it was
for it.
For the 2nd issue, it seems you do not have installed a package for me.
Package which could have been automatically installed by whatever other
wm you use, or any other software.
I already had issues with softwares which had silent dependencies in
Debian. It is easy for developpers to forgot about one of those when
then are making tests on systems using a complete desktop environment,
and users as me (us?) which prefers to keep systems as light as possible
suffers from that.
After all, how could a window manager break automatic URL management?
For the 3rd and hopefully last issue you had, it is definitely not a i3
problem, since as you say, "I went back to Trinity WM".
I3 just have no way to remember that a window was in fullscreen. Often,
web browsers implements their own window manager internally, which
allows to fullscreen. Since thunderbird is made on the same basis as
firefox, I guess they use the same GUI tools, and so that you are using
the internal full screen mode.
If I am wrong on any of my assertions, please correct me.
