Ok, after few months of using PaperWM in Gnome, I literally can not imaging going back to any ‘classic’ Window Manager. Yes, I had to slightly configure PaperWM to get rid of unnecessary stuff ang get back ‘pure gnomish user experience’. But man, workflow with windows scrollable tiling is SO MUCH CLEANER.

I really hope one day will have pure, native, out of the box experience in Gnome like this.

Why not switching to some ‘natively tiling DE’? Simply because the Gnome is mature, looks great, is slick, fast and just right. Except it hasn’t scrollable tiling :)

Anyways - PaperWM author is genius. I guess idea is older than this particular project, but the execution works really well - I had just few stability problems (I’m not sure who’s to blame) but generally it is really slick and reliable.

Loving it! Thanks to Gnome and PaperWM for making this possible.
