Anybody using KISS slicer with the Mk3?

I'm giving KISS a try after reading glowing reports of its handling of supports and layer seams. After getting past the shock of the interface, I've managed to get the Mk3 profiles from the KISS site configured on my Mac (not obvious) and have done a test print at 0.20mm fixed layer height with a 0.25mm nozzle. So far, I'm impressed with how cleanly support can be removed and the resulting cleaner underside finish. Rounded surfaces seem very true with no subtle ridges. I've still got a lot of work to do, and I expect things will improve once I get current startup gcode settings installed.

KISS' adaptive layers sound very promising. I'm also hoping that it is possible to incorporate volumetric limits into prints without a lot of work.

I'm curious whether any Mk3 users are using KISS as their daily driver for slicing, and if there are any pointers to tips. I've noticed the Linear Advance and PreloadVE, and have read some confusing messages on whether the techniques should be mixed. Any tips would be very welcome!
