So I did some fiddling around with KDE and managed to turn it into a really decent tiling WM using the Krohnkite KWin script.

My main gripe with hyprland and the likes, plus all the panels like waybar, nwg-panels, hyprpanel etc. was their barebones nature and the complete lack of responsiveness - no useful context menus, barely any customisation unless you spend way too much time writing CSS and bash scripts, no integration with the rest of the system.

Krohnkite solves that by giving you proper tiling inside an actual complete desktop environment.

The only caveat is that you cannot shift focus from a window on one screen to a window on another screen, you have to use the "switch screen" combination instead, and I haven't found yet how to make the mouse cursor move to the window along with the focus.

@BrodieOnLinux since I'm not allowed to bump features in the ticket system - YOUR MAJESTY - then I'd rather complain, nay demand - NAY, command... or no, gently ask: could I plz get the #Plasma panel in the overview? :3

I know you're not a #KDE dev, but still. To me the replacement of #GNOME was somwhat of a hard adjustment - until the #Krohnkite & Dynamic Workstation #KWin scripts came into my life - but one withdrawal remains...

Rate my setup I'm using klassy for decorations and krohnkite for tiling. I set klassy up to look like a cross between breeze and the windows 7 preset, but with outlines for tiling focus.

Tried #Krohnkite 's #Plasma 6 fork. https://github.com/anametologin/krohnkite/

It's really good. Much less buggy than #Polonium.
