I wish someone would make a tiling desktop environment instead of only a window manager to make them easy to use for all without tweaking because they are the future of the DEs.

    You can do this yourself very easily. I use xfce with bspwm for example, you just have to remove xfwm from the startup applications and replace it with your wm of choice.

        That’s the big thing that keeps me from moving to Wayland and sway. I want a full DE and don’t want to reinvent that wheel but afaik I would have to.

        So it’s i3-gnome-flashback for me for now.

          That looks promising! Usually. I prefer Plasma, but the tiling options for that aren’t too great either.

          The System76 people are working on tilingein their DE, though.

          I know that there are tiling WMs for wayland. But I though that using a different tiling WM (like i3/sway) inside of a certain DE (like Gnome or Plasma) doesn’t work in wayland anymore, since the WM/DE distinction doesn’t exist anymore.
