I like Niri a lot. Plus the maintainer isn't an asshole.
Haven’t heard of Niri, what’s that one all about?
It's a column-based tiling window manager, with scrolling!
That's why sway and river exist. They're actually stable.
Sway still struggling with screensharing (specifically window sharing) tho or atleast it was last time I yried it in february :(
Sway 1.12, released last week, added support for capturing individual windows.
Yay it worked, still not usable for me tho, since XWayland fucks up too many applications I need and moving windows with my mod key + left mouse does not count as a single input which then opens rofi which is bound to mod qq
I had that issue with the mod key launcher too, but instead of looking up a proper fix I turned my Capslock key into my launcher lol
For river, I had to do some kind of fix. I'll talk about it later. Reply if I forget.
Haven’t heard of them before tbh, from the replies Sway not be super stable. And river?
I have my (edit: RIVER) config for over a year and it's very reliable. It never broke on me apart from the misconfigurations which were my fault.
It also integrates well with Waybar and is compatible with other Wayland tools for wlroots.
But keep in mind that my config is relatively minimal.
Hyprland is cancer by cancer
