I’m currently using Fedora KDE Plasma, but I’d like to try out a tiling window manager. What would you all reccomend? I use my computer for school, so I would like it to be stable.

No idea what distro you’re currently using but generally you can install whatever window manager/desktop (gui) you want

For a tiling wm I’d recommend hyprland. It’s not the most stable but I’ve had minimal issues with it and it’s really easy to get started with. You can install it alongside gnome/kde I believe and switch between the two on login so if you break one you’ve still got the other

Bear in mind most tiling wms don’t come with much installed by default, you’ll need a bar and a launcher at least

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.
