You can change window focus from the keyboard, have more than two equally-sized windows, split in both directions, control the wm via i3-msg commands, autostart programs easily.

I've been getting into i3, but I haven't made any use of i3-msg yet. Are there any good tutorials to get started?

Check out Luke Smith. He has a few good tutorials on i3. He’s at lukesmith.xyz

Yeah. I’ve replaced IDEA tabs with i3 windows. They’re way easier to manage.
