Thank you for the recommendation. Just installed karousel on Plasma 6 and it works wonderfully part for really weird default keyboard shortcuts. Nothing a few minutes in the settings panel couldn't fix.

I'm not exactly sold on the window scrolling idea yet but switching between Karousel and Polonium[1] which is a traditional twm for Kwin is very easy so I'll be experiment with both.

While scripts can provide a similar experience, without Niri or PaperWM the experience will be sub-par. Scrolling WMs amazing with a touchpad and now that Niri supports mouse, I believe it'll be a great experience.

Could you clarify what's missing with this kwin script? The only thing I see is that window stacking doesn't work on wayland.

Personally, I've given up of controlling all pieces of my DE like setting up busses and keyboard shortcuts. KDE already does all of this brilliantly and kwin scripts get the rest so I can have my cake and eat it too.

Touchpad gestures don't work, it would be really nice if I could scroll with my touchpad, although there may be a way using some type of evdev capturer that mimics a shortcut
