I dont get the hype. Installed it at my Framework laptop, instead the usual xfce. Imho, it tries hard to be too smart, and second guess my intentions. Basic stuff like alt f4 doesn't work for some reason. I just couldn't bother to learn another desktop environment, so here goes xfce again
FW did have a keyboard bug early on that affected function keys. Had to pass a param to the kernel to work around. Not sure it is still an issue on recent kernels, and haven’t thought of it in a year or two.
Alt+F4 is bound to "close window" by default, so I don't know why that didn't work for you. Something I really enjoy with KDE is I can reconfigure practically all keyboard shortcuts. I use meta+(numpad+/-) to change volume.
