That's not true, i often just use the tab-mode.
Using tiling for a long time, i go berserk having to rearrange window's with the mouse, then one is over the other...etc, it a mess!
- aorth 6y agoTotally agree. I'm a 100% time tabbed Sway user. I love the simplicity, lightness, and Wayland frame-for-frame correctness of Sway, but without having to do all the tiling stuff. I prefer all windows to be maximized all the time ala GNOME Shell. For the uninformed, use Mod-W to switch windows to tabbed mode in Sway/i3. You can also organize virtual desktops in "workspaces." I keep web/music on workspace 1, terminals and IDEs on workspace 2, and email/msteams/office on workspace 3.
- nix23 6y agoTrue, sometimes i use tilling but most of the time everything is maxed and tabbed, on top i "roll" thru my window's, on the bottom thru my workspace's.
