Whats your favorite workflow in KDE?
Touchpad gesture to alt-tab.
- Is it possible to use KDE's own Custom Shortcuts to print sentences?
-
Three-finger gesture for equivalent of alt-tabbing
Not natively. If you're on X11, you can use third-party tools for touchpad gestures; I have libinput-gestures and put together this (slightly hacky but functional for me) script which you're welcome to use.
- KWin Script - Cycle over windows in both directions
-
Apps open in different desktops at times rather than the one I open it in
For the time being, you can use this script as a workaround.

Print-style debugging for kwin-scripts
Yes, journalctl. A GUI alternative is KSystemLog. You can filter the journal to KWin by _COMM="kwin_x11"/"kwin_wayland", however that output is still very noisy. It helps to prefix the print statements so you can filter by those with -g; here is an example. Note that for journal you can get live updated output with -f. If you're on Wayland and are not getting any output, try systemd boot.

KDE Activities - cannot open 2nd instance of chrome (switches back to 1st activity)
I wrote myself a custom launcher script to solve the same annoying behavior with virtual desktops and Firefox: https://github.com/nclarius/shell-scripts/tree/main/open-on-current-desktop Perhaps that can be used as a starting point to write a modification for activities and with Chrome.
