Several of my posts in the past have been about the ongoing journey to find the best Linux desktop. For a while it was COSMIC DE and KDE. But recently I discovered Dux Shell and also Ryoku OS. My big problem with tiling window managers is that they require significant out of the box efforts to make them look god and be usable. I have heard of scripts you can run, but nothing really functional and elegant that can replace traditional desktops. Dux is different though. At first I tried Ryoku OS, see below (screenshot taken from their website)

I was very impressed with the design and the features out of the box. But ultimately it's Arch, and I don't want to use Arch because it's not quite as reliable for a serious work PC, and with games getting better anti cheat through verified kernels, it rules Arch out for now. I then discovered Dux, formerlt Dank Material Shell. The great thing about Hyprland tiling window managers, is that unlike GNOME based desktops, it fixes the fractional scaling and gaming issue I keep hitting. You can have you desktop set at 1.x scaling AND games will still run at the native resolution of your display. I'm quite tired of this issue with GNOME, and it rules out so many Linux distros it's absurd. I got a little tired of KDE, it just never looked right to me, and added lots of visual noise that only contributes to mental overwhelm. Some like it, the "cockpit" style interface. I do in short bursts, but not looking at all day every day. COSMIC DE is still quite good, but I am just waiting a little longer for it to smooth out the bugs and refine the UI some more before it's ready for daily driving. It's close I sense.

Dux shell may be a similar story, but it's been ok so far. It has so many features include, like a filemanager, lock screen, custom wallpaper builder, plugins including community plugins, now playing lyrics support that appear on the top bar. I can quickly glance at a single percent number for CPU and memory use. I've seen so many Linux desktops that want you to have a graph or something that doesn't make good use of space. It feels similar to GNOME, especially with the light theme, but in my opinion, a little more well thought out and feature rich, since it was designed more recently, but GNOME is getting a little old now. It may well have solved my distro hopping journey, we'll see. One thing it may have done is made me appreciate tiling window managers more, and maybe this will be the beginning of actually "ricing" my desktop like I've seen people do on Reddit and other places.

So if you've been afraid of trying tiling window managers, due to the amount of time it takes to get one up and running, I'd say that problem has been solved with projects like Dux and Ryoku and Caelestia and others.
Both Dux and Ryoku are great, I would use either, but the current dependency is a distro that supports signed or verified kernels, or a distro base that is more "stable" by my definition of stable.
