i3wm-ist here. Niri also didn't provide anything to me i3 didn't. It was actually more dificcult and less productive for my professional work with two monitors. But for laptop only usage it's amazing.

i3 to sway is pretty smooth. You don't have to change much and after a while you forget if youre using i3 or sway.
