Ever since I installed cachy with KDE, I thought it was CachyOS draining my battery like hell rather than KDE desktop environment since cachyOS have a modified kernel built for optimization. I moved to Caelestia shell which is built over hyprland and I experienced significantly less battery drainage. It seems like KDE has become resource hungry after updates. I still use KDE only when I'm using my laptop as a workstation.

Are there any ways of keeping KDE isolated from other DE/WMs?

I want to use Sway along side KDE because I don't want to get rid of KDE entirely yet. I choose KDE when I use use my laptop as a workstation laptop like for gaming or 3D electronics designing or for running proton dependent software (they break on sway when you minimize them). Sway is power efficient and light and feels better when I'm out and I just want to browse or code in python, but I do come across many issues. Stuff like KDE holding of a partition that is just supposed to ask for the password and mount itself on the root (/), or KDE utilities running while I'm on sway like kdeconnect, kdepaswdserver, and stuff. Is there any to completely isolate KDE without any config headache?

Booting taking long due to KDE?

Will getting rid of KDE and installing a WM help with boot time?
