I was reading this and thinking about it too — sounds like author wants a tiling WM but with a friendlier UX?

I honestly don't get why they ignore existing options due to configs. Give it a try, maybe it won't be _that_ bad.

If he spent half the time it took to write that blog post on config, the problem might be solved.

I really think DDH may be onto something with Omarchy Quattro — just provide (reasonably) sane defaults and have LLMs built into a Linux distro. The user can describe the operating system he wants, and the clankers handle fiddling with configs
