I tried to get on the Window Manager hype train — I know it is productive and shit and much more efficient than traditional desktops — but dropped it because it just needs to be configured endlessly and yet I still end up using the mouse when I am just laid back on my chair eating a banana. Installed KDE Plasma and stuck with it ever since. Everything doesn’t need to be text files and command line. A bit of user friendly GUI in life doesn’t hurt.
No shame in that. I love sway/i3 because it force me to keep my screen tidy, but you are right that it takes time to get a decent config file.
Not everything has to be a poweruser wet dream and most Linux distro allows you to do 95% of the stuff you need through the GUI, so more power to you to customize your experience.
