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.

You can freely configure tiling and any hotkeys in KDE as well.

Sure, but that's not the only benefit to having full control over the entire tiling interface. I enjoy building out the features and visuals I want in python. It's fun to have that level of control.

I respect that, but I have different hobbies.
