Okay give me the short and simple. What window manager should I try. I’m using an off shoot of Fedora.
Openbox. Simple and efficient.
Hyprland is awesome. Simple config + good out of the box experience
But for almost all tiling managers I recommend you steal your first config from r/unixporn and then just adapt it

I quite like Hyprland
BSPWM + lxqt/ xfce (lxqt recommended)
You’ll also need SXHKD for better and easier shortcut handling
Linux developers can’t name their products any better than they name their variables.
“Programming done, time to publish, now it just needs a name…” briefly pauses, then smashes face into keyboard… “There! … ehh, no, still missing something.” clicks random spot, types X… “Perfect! Send it!”
To be fair, neither can enterprise outfits.
Teams
New Teams
Teams (new)
Probably more that I forgot
Will it work with KDE?
On KDE, I’d recommend getting a KWin Script for tiling. Krohnkite is what people use currently.
It’s not as buttery smooth as dedicated tiling window managers and it can be a bit glitchy at times, but it is better than one might expect and significantly easier (and likely less glitchy) than trying to get bspwm to work in Plasma.
Technically you could changethe window manager of KDE Plasma to BSPWM, but I wouldn’t recommend it as it is such a tightly knit package
