I'm always confused by such statements, because what KDE offers on Linux easily dwarfs every window management concept in every major OS. I always need to install additional third-party apps (e.g. Rectangle on macOS) to get a poor-man's equivalent of KDE-style window management functionality.

But I don’t have a subset of apps that work in x11, and a subset in wayland… nor inconsistent display fractional scaling in MacOS. Wanted to love KDE, but in complex setups, it’s difficult.

Nothing came close to OSX’s Expose 15 years ago.

OSX has gone backwards in terms of windows management since then.

Linux is far superior. Even Windows is slightly better because at least windows snap to edges.
