> xmonad on top of Plasma

I gave up on XMonad + Gnome before I switched from Ubuntu to NixOS 6-7 years ago. Does XMonad + KDE work? I would love to get such combos working in NixOS / home-manager.

(We also need to bite the bullet and get X-less Wayland working properly. I think I might be tempted to plan everything out at once so we don't get conflicting refactors or too much complexity.)

I was using XMonad+KDE on NixOS just fine for about a year at my old job.

Plasma (on X) generally works very good with other WM. Here's how to use i3: https://github.com/avivace/dotfiles
