+KDE Plasma 5 introduced a (more or less) advanced window tiling manager. Most of
+the time I use `META` plus one or two of the arrow keys to move windows quickly
+to one half or one quarter of the screen. Plasma's advanced tiling manager
+enables us to use layouts that are not defined by half or quarter of the screen
+real estate.
+
+I keep forgetting how to use this, so this is my note to self:
+
+- Define layout: `META+T`
+- Move window to predefined location: hold `SHIFT` while dragging the title bar
+  of a window with the mouse, or press `META`, klick anywhere into the window
+  and start dragging, _then_ while still holding `META`, additionally press
+  `SHIFT` to make the window snap to one of the predefined layout.

+
+I wish there were keyboard shortcuts to move windows into one of the custom tile
+layouts as well: <https://discuss.kde.org/t/keyboard-shortcuts-for-new-tiling-feature/1843>
