dwm. Smallest amount of dependencies and easiest configuration. Also runs on musl+libressl pretty well.
If I'm on Wayland it's Sway+wterm for the same reasons.

I've never run a tiling WM before, but I'm thinking of giving it a shot. The simplicity appeals to me, but I've always been too lazy. I'm about halfway through installing Gentoo on my desktop and as long as I'm learning all this new stuff I figure I might as well learn how to config a tiling wm as well... how does configuration differ on dwm as compared to others?

You do the config through changing the source files and patching them, mainly config.h/config.def.h.
I wouldn't be able to tell you as I've always used dwm and I use Sway with it's default configuration pretty much.

any answer that isnt "none" is bloat

If you're not down with trying a tiling WM go with XFCE or "build your own" DE starting with OpenBox

KDE, because it's the best on any distro
