Best DE for touch screens but also normal use

Jump

  • It's a tiling window manager, like i3 or bspwm.

    You have to pick out all the software (terminal, filemanager, text editor, whatever else a DE provides idk, but also things like a panel or launcher) yourself. Easy choices for that are KDE software (Konsole, Dolphin, Kate, etc), waybar, and rofi-wayland.

    It also doesn't have a settings application (unless you use the very WIP and pretty outdated hyprset), all the configuration is in a file.

  • The websites will just think that it's your default font.

    • Possible to have different desktop folders for different workspaces?

  • Currently most likely GNOME, maybe KDE 6 in a month.

    Gestures feel nice on Hyprland, but to my knowledge there's only a workspace swipe gesture by default. Also note that it's not a DE.

  • except for gestures

    2 finger swipe to the left or right is the gesture to go back and forward, don't know what other gestures you'd need.

  • Actualpy manifestV3 is awesome as they reduce the permissions of extensions on the browser.

    That's literally what kills the ad-blockers. You should watch the video that's conveniently linked in the post you commented on, it's only half an hour long and well researched.
