I think you don't hear about it because its really not much of a thing nowadays. Like my distro zorin uses gnome and I was fine with it for awhile and I would belly ache on forums like this that they should switch to kde. Finally I got off my lazy but and installed kde. once I had the window manager just lists the options. I actually end up with a few because I installed all kde and zorin has its own (well its just a different preconfig of gnome) so I have a drop down for zorin, gnome, kde plasma, and kde x11. thats it done. by installing kde I got that with nothing further done on my part. So its so easy now you just don't get people talking about it really. Personally I loved the next step machines which is why I liked osx but then when ios influence went into osx it drifted away from what I like. Now I mostly just want window snapping.
You mostly want window snapping on what? Can't help ya on Linux. macOS added it, kinda badly, last year or the year before. Before that, I was using a free app called Rectangle to do it. There was another one that was paid that apparently did more, but Rectangle was good enough for me. I stopped using it when Sequoia or Tahoe added it. My needs aren't that great.
um im using zorin with kde. maybe im using the term wrong but for me it means I can use the super button and arrow or mouse and moving the window to the edges or corners to halvies the windows or in the case of corners use a quarter of the screen. Its the main reason I installed kde is for it. It does not have stuff like being able to adjust the windows in tandem but that is at best a minor nicety to me.
