People who don't like KDE, in which aspects is it "too much"?

• Vitals

  63 1,256 8.5 JavaScript

  A glimpse into your computer's temperature, voltage, fan speed, memory usage and CPU load.

I had a really hard time getting widgets in the panel to simply display my computer's current statistics like RAM, CPU, free space, network usage, temperature, etc. This is something I consider essential and I always have it in i3wm, awesomewm, and also in GNOME thanks to the very handy Vitals extension: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1460/vitals/

  138 2,342 0.0 TypeScript

  KDE Plasma add-on, that tiles your windows automatically and lets you manage them via keyboard, similarly to i3, Sway or dwm.

  

I think alt+tab is okay, but shift+alt+tab totally blows, you're right there. I use a window tiling plugin (Bismuth) and win+left and right to move around.

• WorkOS

• quickswitch-for-i3

  2 143 0.0 Python

  A python utility to quickly change to and locate windows in i3

In i3 I have used https://github.com/proxypoke/quickswitch-for-i3. It also works in KDE, but doesn't blend in very nicely.

  A fast and flexible keyboard launcher

  

As a DE-independent alternative I've heard of Albert, but never used it myself.
