    Sooo… I guess I was outta the loop pretty hard. I just spun up Omarchy on account of all the hype surrounding it, and had just enough time with it to fall in love with the workflow before stumbling on this post.

    So does anyone have a recommendation for a good tiling window manager that isn’t created by racists, transphobes, mysogonists, or any other kind of bigots? Or is this just a… time to run back to base Arch with KDE sorta day?

    Edit: And if you are going to inform me that Arch or KDE is run by or support bigots… can you wait until the weekend? Please?

      Everyone I know in KDE-land (granted quite a few have moved onto other things now) was always welcoming and inclusive.

      And despite Miguel de Icaza (Gnome) being an absolute douche, Ive never known him to be problematic in a right-wing way either.

      But thats just what I know, and I don’t know everything. But I think youre OK with KDE and Arch.
