Are you using the stable version or something else?
When I ran the stable version a few months ago it didn't even act like a tiled window manager. After you open it, all it did was tile a bunch of existing windows automatically, but then if you tried to resize them, it only resized the window that had mouse focus.
i3 would have resized all of the windows to fit so there's no gaps.
Overall it just felt very flaky and it had a lot of screen flickering when moving things around.
