I’d place i3 and Sway deeper down the rabbit hole …
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.
My point is - why go backward? You already have your Sway[1] based setup, configured just the way you like it, with the ability to switch various components in and out. What does a monolithic[2] environment like KDE have to offer you?
Assuming it’s Sway and not i3 because I assume you have already switched to Wayland. You switched to Wayland, right? You need to switch to Wayland. Why are you not switching to Wayland? ↩︎
, Yes, you can tweak KDE, but since all the various parts were created to fit together switching one will always result in awkward UX. ↩︎
