Is there any tiling WM that works well with Gnome 42?
You have Material shell as an extension to gnome, but it completely changes the interface. The tiling is nice though, but it completely crashes gnome if you disable it again.
-
what is your preferred desktop layout style?
Material Shell look like an interesting idea - workspaces and apps are switched using very natural arrow-like navigation, but I'm a bit skeptical of the tiling mechanism. I'll probably look at using vanilla GNOME but with remapped shortcuts.

2022 is officially the Year of Linux Gaming
Thanks, I'll check out gTile. For a while I used Material Shell which was great, but stopped because of all the constant breakages with every Gnome update (which is my biggest gripe with Gnome).

Any distro with good UX for my laptop
Try this on gnome. This is a good extension if you have gnome. The pop-tiler on top of gnome is also good, but since they're developing their own thing, i think it hasn't seen much development. The new thing will probably be lit though.

Plans for GNOME 43 and Beyond – Chris's Design & Development
I've used a number of different window managers over the years and I've found that using a tiling/tabbed window manager and tabless browsers is more convenient – since you're using the same tabbed workflow on all your apps, not just the browser. If was especially pleasant with Material Shell (a tiling/tabbed gnome shell DE), but even with i3-like WMs desktop-wide tabs are fantastic.

Awesome GNOME-Shell extensions you did not know about...
Been running Material Shell for awhile now. It's a tiling manager/workspace manager. I've become very reliant on it.

I recreated in Xfce what I'd imagine a modern version of GNOME 2 could look like (in both single panel and dual panel versions)
Material shell for Gnome does that.

Configuring Window Managers is a pain. Any hope for a future of WMs with more DE-esque configuring methods?
In the Full DE+Tiling family that one could think of GNOME+Pop Shell as belonging to, you could also put GNOME+Material Shell and KDE+Bismuth.

I ended liking GNOME with the loss of one hand
I can not have any sympathy for Gnome as long as it keeps breaking extensions and any other form of customization.
Pure Gnome is not great for me. Gnome could be, but if any fix I apply will inevitably break, it simply isn't something I want to spend time on.
I am very interested in something like Material Shell (1) or PaperWM (2) both inspired by 10gui (3), but if the Gnome foundation layer will keep shaking anything above itself, I just do not want to bother with it.

Long time users, have you ever been able to fully escape mouse/touchpad?
check out Material Shell as a Window Manager, I ended up liking it even more than i3
-
Launched apps should open on the workspace where it was started, not the current one.
Material-Shell already does that. But I think its a bit heavy for me.

I just switched from KDE Plasma to GNOME 42 and looking for a Krohnkite alternative.
Material shell? Not *exactly* like krohnkite, but a great tiling window manager none-the-less. https://material-shell.com/

Are there any standalone tiling WMs with workflow similar to Material Shell?
When I was using Manjaro with GNOME it came with this optional extension called Material Shell. I loved it because it provided an easy-to-grasp tiling manager experience. However, it was really buggy (windows were rendered where they actually weren't, especially with something like Firefox), plus Manjaro didn't have the freshest software in its repositories, so I dumped it for Arch with KDE.

Controversial: I think that pop os would have been the perfect distro, if GNOME wasn’t the default DE.
