I tried plasma with i3 and can't remove it now
I am using plasma primarily and decided to install i3. Then I followed the instructions from https://github.com/heckelson/i3-and-kde-plasma then decided that the did not work. I deleted the .system file and yay -R i3 but the option still wasn't removed from my login screen. Theres no i3 anymore but my i3 with Plasma option is still there

i3wm status bar not working in KDE Plasma
Reddit KDE GitHub ... I don't think you tried hard enough. :)
- Plasma + i3 is AMAZING

bro do you even Linux? sometimes you just gotta flex
I feel like a heroin dealer now, but seriously; getting past the initial hump for TWMs is so worth it, and i3 + plasma is reportedly a great combination. The best of both worlds. i3 now has mouse drag rearrangement also, which is a game changer.

BSPWM?
Bspwm is a window manager. Configuration happens in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/bspwm/bspwmrc, as per stated here: https://github.com/baskerville/bspwm
- Multiple screens with different resolutions?

What WM should I use?
Use BSPWM. It supports right clicks by default and its modular. You might want to look for status bars that work with it, slstatus does not work. Good luck, supremacist!

What are some OpenSource apps that are the best of their kind?
I had not heard of bspwm but I am a fan of telling WMs. Looking at the documentation now, I really like the pragmatic approach lol https://github.com/baskerville/bspwm

Changing layout of node
If you use the bspwm off of github instead of the old 0.9.10, you can use bspc node @parent -y next to cycle the split type of the parent of the focused. I added it ~1.5years ago, after baskerville added node -y horizontal and node -y vertical to set the split type of a node to vertical/horizontal ~2 years ago.

How to use dump and load state?
Also bspwm's JSON generation and parsing is not great. If you have a window with quotes in its class name, bspwm, when dumping it, will not escape them generating invalid JSON (e.g. {"className":"the "cool" window",) that jq will not be able to read, and even worse, bspwm itself will not be able to read. (Yes, if a window's class name contains a " character, bspwm will fail to reload after you run wm -r #1362).
