    Guess I’ll try this though Karousel. Like Krohnkite.

    Thanks OP!


    And before you ask, I’ve been through my “modular WM shopping” phase in Linux. While it’s nice, for me, having a full DE is nice too.

    Things like remembering a WiFi password just work. I don’t have to spend hours reading documentation, and hunting for my own typos in text files, to configure my mouse, or printer, or display. I don’t have to research and research and conclude HDR/VRR or some specific graphical app just isn’t going to work, or script my own features from scratch.

    And resource usage?

    By the time I install what I need, I end up with less RAM used in debloated KDE than custom tiling configs. Maybe I could get it down with hundreds of man hours put in to testing and integration, and then maintain the custom configuration myself for the future instead of letting my distro handle that, but… well. I’d rather not.
