Another user pointed out that `GLFW_FLOATING` might not be what i'm looking for, how would I make a window floating (in the context of a tiling window manager)

Make the window not able to be resized. This can be done by setting the GLFW_RESIZABLE hint or attribute to GLFW_FALSE. I'm not sure how dwm or other window managers handle it, but i3 at least will respect it by putting the window into floating mode automatically if it is spawned with GLFW_RESIZABLE GLFW_FALSE. The window can still be forced into tiling mode or made fullscreen if the user presses the right shortcut though, which will cause the window to be resized anyway. Many applications don't respond well to this.
