Niri is the future imo. It is the cleanest, simple setup and the workflow simply works.
Agreed, and the dev is an amazing guy! Yalter makes sure that every feature is well thought out and laid best according to the specs.
Been using it on my laptop and it’s amazing for that form factor.
Just slide away on the trackpad.
Now desktop I think I will stay with traditional tilling but who knows?
I personally like combining both on desktop. Scrolling for web and occasional file browser or terminal, tiling for coding and ricing, tiling for messaging apps, etc. It depends on the need. That’s why I went with MangoWC. I keep niri for my laptop though (where I also don’t want blur anyway).
oh no, yet another wm I gotta try !!! daamn u idiots ( people who have ideas, in this case good ) and follow them through !!!
My daily driver for home and college, where I write most of my code
- Laptop: thinkpad E14
- OS: Btw
- WM: Niri
- Bar+notification daemon+launcher: ironbar + mako + vicinae
- editor+note taking: nvim + zk-cli
- terminal+shell+prompt: kitty + nushell + starship
Lockscreen is swaylock, which I haven’t posted here. Everything is catpuccin themed :)
EDIT: Forgot to add, that hexdump like thingy is my WIP website
ricing wise hyprlock is cooler, I got mine displaying a fortune each time it appears.
I agree and I tried hyprlock, but the issue is it doesn’t fork from the calling tty, therefore when I use it as a pre-hook for suspend it just leaves the laptop open and then I have to unlock it and then the laptop goes to sleep.
gtklock and swaylock both support detaching from tty. I used gtklock but it had failures with multiple monitors on occasion, so I switched back to swaylock.
