I wish someone would make a tiling desktop environment instead of only a window manager to make them easy to use for all without tweaking because they are the future of the DEs.

No, “defeating the purpose” definetly is hyperbole. ;)

But if you’ve used tiling before and do a lot of text editing (like developers do) and use the terminal a lot, not being able to use the keyboard for tiling WMs just feels worse than using a stacking WM in the first place, since you feel so held back by the mouse.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
