Hi! HHKB user since 2004. Linux user since '95. I've been using tiling window managers for about 20 years. I've tried a few. Ratpoison first, then ion, then xmonad, then spectrwm (which is my favourite), but since I moved to wayland a couple of years ago, I've settled on sway (https://swaywm.org/). Meta-Return spawns a terminal (https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot, which is blazingly fast, using very little resources). Meta-/ spawns a chromium. Meta-Shift-/ spawns chrome. Besides the last two I mentioned, I use the default bindings, which work nice. As a final touch, if you are using X11 and are a emacs user, you can try https://github.com/ch11ng/exwm, which turns emacs itself into a window manager, allowing to never ever leave emacs for anything. Phew! That was a mouthful! :-)

Since Sway is a port of https://i3wm.org/ to Wayland, for enlightening I suggest you look for info on the latter.
