- Shared404 6y agoYou probably know this already, but you can use KDE with your choice of WM, allowing you to swap out kwin for i3/sway or whatever else floats your boat/gives you tiling. Edit: Spelling
- d_tr 6y agoOnly on X11 though, and you can only use X11 window managers.
- Shared404 6y agoAh, thanks for the correction. Do you happen to know if this is on KDE's roadmap for Wayland? Edit: A little bit of internet later, I found these: https://drewdevault.com/2018/04/28/KDE-Sprint-retrospective.html https://userbase.kde.org/Tutorials/Using_Other_Window_Managers_with_Plasma#cite_note-1 It looks like it will probably be done at some point, and is definitely possible.
- d_tr 6y agoThanks, I actually had a vague memory of having read about this somewhere. Cool!
- AzzieElbab 6y agoI tried that but ran into weird app behaviour and gave up at some point. Might give it another try at some point
- Shared404 6y agoSome apps do behave badly with strictly tiling managers in my experience. Usually what I do is make one floating workspace and open them in there.
- tmerse 6y agoI can recommend krohnkite which can be found under Kwin scripts -> install additional. Can also be extended via js
