I can’t go back from a tiling WM but I would actually prefer to use a DE nowadays. I seriously hope that COSMIC will be able to fill that gap between the two.
Also, the fact that you can edit COSMIC through config files is a game changer.
Although I don’t really like the tiling layout style, sometimes I want something easy to setup like GNOME but with good autotiling
Thanks for the suggestion but I’m not going back from Wayland either.
I know there are ways to tile in both Gnome and KDE, I tried some of them. Unfortunately, none of them allow for workspace management type I’m used to.
What I need is to have workspaces 1-5 on the first monitor, 6-8 on the second, and 9-11 on the third. I need those to be bound to the monitors so I don’t have to manually move them around. And I need to switch between them independently of course. It’s interesting that no DE seems to be able to do that but it’s a standard way to set up Hyprland or Sway.

You could use your twm within kde or xfce. I’ve never done it, but people who have seem to be happy with it.

I haven’t tried it, but I’ve heard you can use a third party wm inside plasma.
