From your third link:
System Integrity Protection needs to be (partially) disabled
for yabai to inject a scripting addition into Dock.app for
controlling windows with functions that require elevated
privileges. This enables control of the window server, which
is the sole owner of all window connections, and enables
additional features of yabai.
The risk Apple kills yabai after you're adjusted to it is real.

- matwood 5y ago> This holds for anything in the Apple ecosystem. Holds for anything in almost any ecosystem. With that said, Apple has stated over and over the Mac will remain developer friendly. Being able to disable SIP, IMO is part of that.
- athorax 5y agoFWIW, I run yabai without having disabled SIP and it works great. There is probably some subset of functionality I am missing out on, but it does what I need it to.
- Lownin 5y agoI use yabai without disabling sip. You get most of the features. It's the first tiling WM I've used, so it's possible I'm missing something critical without disabling sip, but so far I'm quite happy with it despite whatever features are missing. ymmv, of course.
