My experience is you lose any gains elsewhere - messing with config files, random apps breaking in a tiling WM, having to plan your workspaces, having to do like 5 chords to get the optimal layout, etc.. I also think i3/sway style tiling is kinda unusable on large or ultra wide screens which is what I use nowadays. I feel my productivity is pretty much the same on KDE/Windows/OS X (with rectangle) style WMs after some adjustment. How often do you really need to rearrange windows anyways in your day to day? And does it need to be perfect? The only tiling WM I found had substantial benefits was PaperWM. I wish that style of tiling was more popular. It’s kind of the best of both worlds between tiling and non tiling.
