    I’m still stuck on i3 and sway. I hear there’s a version of KDE that is tiling…? But I haven’t found anything definitive on that.

        I’ve heard this which made me assume it was like an option I can just enable, but every search has only come up with some baroque scripting or configuration guides, which seems like a lot more work than just using an actual tiling window manager.

        E: Oh I get it now, you just install Krohnkite. This is a bit of an improvement, I will admit.

      That’s an odd statement. I’d place i3 and Sway deeper down the rabbit hole, being build-your-own[1] as opposed to packaged deals like KDE.


      1. in the sense of building a configuration - not in the sense of compiling code. ↩︎

        I mean they are, but my mind and fingers have been so twisted by vim that I can’t really interact with floating wms without feeling honestly pretty intense discomfort. I see people having fun with their cool Plasmas etc and I wish I could make the leap, but every time I try I just bristle at all the mouse use. The lack of control makes me feel like I’m trying to use a computer while wearing oven mittens.
