After 2y on Linux I can say with full confidence that switching from GNOME to KDE (for me) is a bigger barrier than switching from Windows to Linux ever was.

I’ve tried a lot to like KDE but I just can’t. I usually see people discussing distros but I feel like picking the right DE makes much bigger impact. I’m yet to try Hyprland though.

Considering the fact that I’m itching to get Steam Frame and VR on GNOME will likely be broken indefinitely, idk what to do.

    What’s your preferred way to turn KDE into a tiling WM? I tried something in the past, but every time I tried to resize a window smaller than 25% of the screen, it would pop it out into floating mode.

    I am still using sway because I need to know that there are no hiding windows anywhere. That shit drives me berserk.

      Kröhnkite works well. I’m using it with KDE 6 on plasma no issues.

      I just tested a bunch of windows and none of them went floating, not sure about manual resizing though.

        Cool. I’ll give it a go. I do often manually resize windows though, so maybe that’s where I went wrong. Thanks for the tip
