I made outlines for KDE Breeze window decoration
> That would take years. I use Debian Stable.
That kinda is the whole point of static releases like debian stable, ubuntu lts, red hat or windows ltsc? That you actively don't want to have any changes like these but want stable (=static) foundations to build on. (currently writing this on old stable; don't feel bothered to upgrade right now)
> I think Plasma has something like "Decorations" - can a custom decoration be used? Can one use scripts in the "Decorations"?
The software under discussion seems to be a change to the breeze window decoration so for this one probably not (yet), but e.g. for aurorae

Is it possible to draw a thin border (~4 pixles) around windows?
I've also tried other window decorations from KDE store, for example, No-Titlebar theme and Active Accent, but both of them makes the windows animations unbearable laggy.
-
Is prevention of disablement of window-decoration possible?
Also. I don't know if it helps you, but there is ActiveAccentFrame. It put a color border around active windows. Can be installed from Get new thing for Windows Decoration in Settings.
-
Maximized Window without border
The workaround I will be using is to change decorations from https://store.kde.org/p/1678088 to https://store.kde.org/p/1709569 So there is at least some sort of indication of active window :/

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.

[Help] Meta only active Krunner, not toggle
Here is a script I created for this purpose: https://github.com/nclarius/shell-scripts/tree/main/toggle-krunner

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.

How so setup only 1 Konsole windows be actived

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.
