  3. xmonad

    The core of xmonad, a small but functional ICCCM-compliant tiling window manager

    If you want tiling, but i3 requires too much manual work, you might like the more managed layouts that are the default in XMonad: https://xmonad.org/

    XMonad works fine with multiple monitors. Each monitor displays one of the many virtual desktops. The normal keys for desktops and for windows work pretty intuitively with multiple monitors.

  4. spectrwm

    A small dynamic tiling window manager for X11.

    I am not sure what you want out of I3, but if it is "i3 configuration is too complicated" might I suggest spectrwm. I like it because it hits that sweet spot for a tilling WM between "more configurable than dwm" and "less configurable than i3"

    https://github.com/conformal/spectrwm

    Plus I find it handles multiple monitors well.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
