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.

Personally I hate tiling, I just want those cool closing and opening animations
If you use KDE, look for the "TV Glitch [burn-my-windows]" opening and closing animation. It's a default setting in the KDE Settings > Workspace behavior > Desktop effects > Window open/close animation section. It's really good in my opinion, especially if you tinker with the open/close timing to make it a little more crisp.
I believe in hybrid models. Sometimes tiling is really nice, but what I really want is a better and customizable snap window management.
KDE has your back. You .mostly use regular windows but with meta+T you can configure tiles that can be used to snap windows to them using shift when dragging a window
Might have to try that out. Since installing Linux I've mostly run Gnome and I like it a lot so far.
I've only started out with Linux a few weeks ago and I liked gnome for the few weeks I've used it, but I'm liking KDE much more than gnome so far.
Oh I love that manual titling thingy. I wish I could save my window setups tho. Also an automatic tile option too.
