I saw it, it's actually pretty cool. But I suspect it's a very niche thing, and you might see someone build a third party extension.

Most people agree that a screen should feel like a physical desk where windows can pile, overlap, and scatter naturally. Would you use a tiling "system" for your physical desk? I highly doubt it.

Niri's infinite scrolling approach makes that into a rigid filmstrip sequence. It might be interesting for some people though.

This is nice and all, but it doesnt fit my workflow. I have a 4k monitor so I can have 5-6 windows open at once, they are all of different sizes because they are all showing different info and they are all in different places because its physical place is determined by its usage frequency.

In this setup theres the assumption that theres only ever two things Im looking at, and they are equally important because each one is 50/50.

Even if two can be configured to 3, and the 50/50 ratio can be changed, thats not the point, the desktop arrangement is a reflection of the task I am working on, not a rigid pattern enforced by a window manager.

I find these types of wms very bizarre. They must fit some people's mental model but its so far from being useful for me, I just find it fascinating that anyone could find this useful.
