I used to use Sway and I found tiling to be useful only when using multiple terminals. Tmux allows me to have tiling functionalities for terminals while having a full desktop environment for all other applications.

Yeah i feel that. It takes a while, once you’re settled in and have done a bit of configuring to make a tiling wm work a specific way then it starts getting harder to go back. I would flip flop between KDE Plasma and either i3 or sway for a long while but eventually my sway config got to a point where I just prefer using it full time as I have to put in more work to make Plasma behave the same way.
That being said i still keep Plasma installed in case i get an itch to just use a DE like that for a bit. Or to check out updates for it.
yeah, i think i just never to got to that point you’re describing (to have such an extended and working config, that the switch back to a DE would be more effort than just keep going).
