I have Niri + Noctalia on my laptop rn and it's nice for most tasks, but so limited. configuring external monitors doesn't work right. the steam flatpak doesn't even display a window. the builtin clipboard manager doesn't work. Non-linux people watch me use this and they decide that linux is unusable.

I mean zero disrespect to any of the people building these fantastic tools but I keep crawling back to KDE Plasma. Am I doing something wrong hahah

Youre doing something wrong but if plasma works for you, it works for you.

I cannot imagine using anything other than a tiling WM. The same way I cannot stand coding/writing without vim mode. Because I have become so efficient and good at them, things just get done way more quickly.

But if the WM doesn't have that multiplier effect for you, just go tge easy path.
