  • Pros:
  1. system trays applet already works out of the box (still customizable to some extend at least more than gnome system trays)
  2. very good support for Wayland and VIDIA GPUs
  3. easy and quick to customize and you don't have to deal with CSS if you don't have much time to waste
  4. better integrated with KDE's softwares (Kdenlive, KDE connect, Konsole, Kate, Elisa...) which is my opinion some of the best softwares for Linux even better than Windows's in some cases
  5. friendly community (mostly)
  • Cons:
  1. you have to use KDE with Krohnkite

This is not really about time savings. It's more about "I want to spend as little time as possible doing this crap.". But I agree the switch is not super worth it. IMO tiling WM vs a floating WM one is kinda like putting your toothbrush in the bathroom instead of the bedroom. Having it in the bedroom is inferior to putting it in the bathroom but in the end the more efficient option won't really make your life different.

    Keeping it in your bedroom has advantages, especially if you're prone to forgetting because you see it right in front of you before you go to bed. It also dries faster (less bacteria growth) and you never have to clear it out to clean your bathroom sink (obviously a non-issue if you have a cabinet).

    But uh, I got you
