> tiling window managers are just not very practical, for numerous reasons

What reasons? I've been using tilling window managers for years now, and I feel like it's 1995 whenever I need to deal with dragging and maximizing windows.

I agree with the gp. I like some aspects of tiling vms but gave up after a while.

The main pain points for me were

1) I often end up with two windows each taking a side of the screen leaving basically nothing of interest in the centre. So I end up jumping through some tetris-like hoops to make a window be centered.

2) If I close any window all the others move, often causing a repeat of problem 1

3) apps not supporting it properly causing weird graphical glitches

4) some apps should never be small windows, others never large.

Basically I ended up spending more time managing windows with a tiling vm than I ever did before, which eventually outweighed the benefits.
