My custom HUD setup for plasma. Works with both GTK, Qt and electron app (everything with dbusmenu). Works on X11 and Wayland. Link- https://github.com/Zren/plasma-hud, Theme- https://github.com.cnpmjs.org/undiabler/nord-rofi-theme
The guy who created latte dock maintains a trio of widgets (https://github.com/psifidotos/applet-window-appmenu, https://github.com/psifidotos/applet-window-buttons, https://github.com/psifidotos/applet-window-title) which are just PERFECT for that purpose. They don't require you to run latte, but it helps if you have more than one screen.

Can I combine Windows Title and Window Appmenu applets on Latte panel so that window title fills up available space but does not truncate the appmenu?
Yeah, I know, the other issue is here: https://github.com/psifidotos/applet-window-title/issues/33 , I hope that gets addressed evetually:-).
- I ended liking GNOME with the loss of one hand

Going to give KDE Plasma a real try, any "essential tweaks" or distro suggestions?
If you want multiple panels in a Unity like layout, I found it easier to do that with latte dock than with the builtin panels. I also like using this Plasma applet to display window title in a plasma/latte panel.

Klassy v4.3 customizable window decoration and application style released for Plasma 5.27
There is a fork of LightlyShaders at https://github.com/a-parhom/LightlyShaders which sort of works on Wayland from git master but not as well as it used to on previous KWin versions.

Is it impossible to change the border radius of a window?
I use this Desktop Effect (Lightlyshader) for my rounded corners, the only problem is, it does not play nice with many other Desktop effects(Wobbly, Magic Lamp, etc), so test it and see what break or doesn't.
