For me the main selling point of epaper is that the device can write to it then turn entirely off, for potentially multiple weeks of battery on a charge.

That's a shame. I'd probably be content using Mac OS if there was a switch somewhere that put it in "developer mode" or something which would allow you to do that.
Swaywm on Mac OS would be neat.
I've haven't spent much time on mac OS but doesn't it allow you to run your own desktop environments? I've seen things that look like tiling window managers on mac OS.
I agree, Gnome can CSDeez nuts. They're really ruining my tiling window manager experience. Worse still than the death of global menus is the death of unity HUD style interfaces which were just catching on (press alt button to start a search interface for all the menu options) they were so nice for the likes of gimp and open office.
Sorry if it's moderately less "ooh ahh shiny" but it's objectively an incredibly efficient way to find things. Gnome has posed no valid alternative for this and several other features that they have sunset.
As a sway user even I agree with this move. We don't need our own apple-like entity directing the course of Linux UI design toward pretty walled gardens. We can have our pretty and approachable UI cake and power user/traditional desktop features too!
Oxygen² theme was promised around the release of plasma 6 so probably next year!
