I miss an older KDE feature, which was custom tabbed windows. You could easily Alt+Tab between windows, and then use another shortcut to move between tabs.

That way, I could put the service logs/terminal on one side, and the IDE and e.g. running website in another window.

You can get this with i3 or any other tiling window manager, but I found too many cases of odd behaviour with i3 and gave up on it.

fwiw, this (Material Shell) feels very similar to that.

I can have a tab for Thunderbird, Slack, and Jira in my "Communication" workspace, and Meta-A/Meta-D to swap between them.

Each has a little tab in the top bar that highlights the currently selected tab.
