This is more like desktop enviromment vs window manager users
Are there people that use window managers without using desktop environments? I thought that one is a component of the other.
Absolutely, there are a good few window managers designed to be standalone. I use AwesomeWM and i3 is very popular.
If you don't need a full desktop environment it's nice to have something that mostly stays out of the way.
I don't think you need to go full WM-onlyism to find yourself unable to relate to Gnome users. There are probably a handful of KDE users who still use Chrome, but we usually have some shame. We're not, like, trying to form HOAs in our neighborhoods like Gnome users are, probably.
