I saw another post about starting nm-applet, however such command is not available in Fedora 23.
Same goes for gnome-settings-daemon. Probably the guides are referring to older versions of Gnome.
How can I solve this? Is it possible to have the network manager icon to quickly switch on/off VPNs and WiFi connections?
Thanks in advance :)
I'm a Fedora 22 user, so things might have changed in the meantime.
Are you sure there is no network-manager-applet package you could install. Try running dnf install network-manager-applet as root.
What happens when you run (as root) dnf provides *nm-applet? It should provide the name of the package (if any) that contains the applet command.
Personally I use wicd and start it in tray using the .i3/config file:
exec --no-startup-id wicd-client --tray
There's nothing i3 specific here. If you want to use NetworkManager, use NetworkManager. If Fedora 23 doesn't have it, install and configure it. nm-applet should be a part of it.
You should check the Fedora docs on this.

Use "dnf provides <name>" when you know the command name but the package name is different :) The NAME can be any file (including binaries).
