Not frequently, however in experimental phase where you need to debug if any specific combination of patch is causing issues, it helps a lot. For instance, I had issues with my delete key not working even with delkey patch and then after trying to enable patches incrementally I zeroed in on the fixkeyboardinput patch. Sure I can do this in a VCS flow but, it feels magical what a bunch of ifdef’s simplify the process to. And I feel it is still suckless philosophy since the code still compiles to exactly what you need.

Additionally, it helps lower the barrier to entry for a lot of people, who would have shied away from the manual patching flow. You’d be surprised how often i have seen people squint with default xterm on our servers, not knowing how to configure it and messing around with xrdb. (Which takes a while to propagate across LSF clusters). With flexipatch it feels easier to introduce it to them since I just say run make after any config changes to apply the setting and restart the terminal emulator.

Ohh i tried wezterm and ghostty. Couldn’t get them working using just software rendering. And once st worked, I realized I don’t need it tbh.
