    while I’m not sure about the tiling WM front I can help with the KDE optimization on Arch part:

    To preface I’m sharing sections of my Bash script that I’m in the process of eventually releasing under AGPL-3.0 which should help explain the editing/verboseness of them.

    For base/minimal Arch Linux Packages:

    ## `btrfs-progs` is dependent/only required if you use BTRFS as your file system.
## `grub` is also dependent if you use GRUB instead of Systemd as your init system.
## intel-ucode replaces amd-ucode (as discerned from your comment on this post) which installs Intel-based microcode for your processor/CPU.
pacstrap -K /mnt intel-ucode base base-devel btrfs-progs efibootmgr grub iptables-nft linux linux-firmware linux-lts man nano networkmanager pipewire pipewire-alsa pipewire-jack pipewire-pulse sudo

    For Installing Core Packages

    ### grub-btrfs is omitted as it is orphaned as of Sept 3, 2024. https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/grub-btrfs/.
pacman -Sy --needed bash-completion cryptsetup dnsmasq e2fsprogs efibootmgr firewalld man-db networkmanager sddm sddm-kcm

    KDE Focused Packages

    ## Installing plasma Group Packages
## https://archlinux.org/groups/x86_64/plasma/
pacman -Sy --needed breeze breeze-gtk discover drkonqi kactivitymanagerd kde-cli-tools kde-gtk-config kdecoration kdeplasma-addons kgamma kglobalacceld kinfocenter kmenuedit kpipewire kscreen kscreenlocker ksystemstats kwallet-pam kwayland kwin kwrited layer-shell-qt libkscreen libksysguard libplasma milou plasma5support plasma-activities plasma-activities-stats plasma-desktop plasma-disks plasma-firewall plasma-integration plasma-nm plasma-systemmonitor plasma-thunderbolt plasma-vault plasma-workspace plasma-workspace-wallpapers polkit-kde-agent powerdevil qqc2-breeze-style systemsettings xdg-desktop-portal-kde

## Installing kde-applications Group Packages
## https://archlinux.org/groups/x86_64/kde-applications/
pacman -Sy --needed dolphin kate kmix konsole kwalletmanager

    AMD GPU Related Packages

    ## Installing Video Drivers
## FOSS AMD GPU Drivers
## Please see the table on https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xorg
pacman -Sy --needed mesa vulkan-radeon libva-mesa-driver mesa-vdpau xf86-video-amdgpu

## Enable the multilib repository for 32-bit application support:
sed -i "/\[multilib\]/,/Include/"'s/^#//' /etc/pacman.conf

## To enable 32-bit application support, the multilib repository is enabled by default using the sed command above. This allows the necessary drivers to be installable from the multilib repository.
pacman -Sy --needed lib32-mesa lib32-libva-mesa-driver lib32-vulkan-radeon lib32-mesa-vdpau
## Owners of older AMD graphics cards (GCN 1&2) may also want to install the ATI driver:
#pacman -S --needed xf86-video-ati

    Some packages were omitted from the installation lines above as this was taken from my custom installer for self-hosting services.
    I’d recommend checking the links provided above to to figure out what additional packages you want for yourself🤗

    If you still have issues with KDE X11/Wayland on Arch or Ubuntu, feel free to DM me and I’ll try my best to help👍

    The coverage was to be for birth control and diabetes drugs and supplies, but B.C. Health Minister Adrian Dix said oral contraceptives are already covered under a provincial program so that share will be used to cover hormone therapy for women.

    “We are taking that money, the between $30 and $40 million in B.C., that will come from the federal government for contraception, and applying it to something else, to make something else free at point-of-purchase, free for British Columbia women,” Dix said.

    British Columbia has become the first province in Canada to sign a pharmacare agreement with the federal government that would help the province fund hormone replacement therapy and diabetes expenses.

    I’ve reordered the statements to make the overview the last paragraph but damn someone call 911 cause B.C’s killing it with actually meaningful progress🤌✨
