eGPU support on Linux
If you're ok with running X11, you can use egpu-switcher and modify the Xorg configuration yourself afterwards.

Only using Xorg since Wayland gave me more issues than fixes. I'm using egpu-switcher

Thunderbolt Secure Settings in BIOS
Try installing eGPU-switcher, make sure you have the right drivers installed, and as others have said make sure you have the right cable. Last thing, only plug in or unplug the eGPU when the laptop is off.

Any guides for setting up an eGPU on ubuntu 22.04 ?
You didn't mention the problems you ran into but it should be plug and play. You will have to set up the proper config for it to work properly, and I would recommend using hertg's egpu-switcher if you are having issues: https://github.com/hertg/egpu-switcher

Hotplug eGPU without reboot/re-login?
here is the hotplug script that seemed promising, but did not work for me (nVIDIA only) here is a more sophisticated-looking script that seems intended for Desktop-users though, and also specifically excludes hotplugging options...

Intel ARC A750 eGPU - A Niche Nightmare (help wanted)
The A750 is now a recognized PCIe device, and works with connected displays to an extent. During boot, KMS/Plymouth shows on connected displays, as well as GDM (albeit, laggy, but it did that before anyways). The problem starts with Xorg, where during startx, I get a No screens found error. My Xorg configuration was autogenerated by egpu-switcher, where it only fails in egpu mode (connected displays do not work in internal mode). GNOME on Wayland works surprisingly with my laptop display working as normal, but the eGPU's external displays come with various graphical glitches, stuttering, outputting to 1080i30 on a 1440p60 display, etc.

kde tilling features needs some attention
That's exactly what happens. Bismuth was a fork of Krohnkite. If someone needs Bismuth enough, they will pick it up, fork it or whatever.

KDE VS GNOME
No idea what exactly that shell does but in KDE krohnkite https://github.com/esjeon/krohnkite was pretty popular until it was somehow superseeded by bismuth https://github.com/Bismuth-Forge/bismuth (which forked krohnkite or was inspired by or whatever) and now with Plasma 5.27 there's initial work on a native tiling window manager including a whole new API for people to build upon, and which can be accessed with Meta+T.

Is there a way to install Kwin - Bismuth on my steam deck in a way that doesn't make my head hurt?
You can use Kronkite just fine. Bismuth is a fork of it, and their feature-sets are practically the same.

Do you know how that differs from https://github.com/esjeon/krohnkite it seems like that is another tiling extension.
