Wayland bugs out on my machine so it’s X11 for life (or at least maybe until I get a different GPU or something idk). But isn’t sway a drop in replacement for i3? Or does it make life easier with some additional functionality or features?

Two monitor life is a good life but it’s the part of my i3 config that’s most annoying. I guess idk exactly what I want but I know I don’t want to fiddle and fight with my i3 config lol

I first tried awesomewm the last time I wiped and reinstalled a new Linux and it crashed my X session. I gave it an hour or so and reluctantly went back to i3. Maybe I should give it another look :)

This looks rad - I’m getting grumpy at i3 so I’d love to replace it. Have you used it with multiple monitors by chance? Thanks for sharing!

Idk I think there is a ton of overlap between industry and the highest levels of government. They wouldn’t want pesky things like human well-being to get in the way of profit so they get their hands on some of the levers of power and mitiga

Datalog is rad and has some neat ergonomics. It’s not so much a need as a want kind of thing. It’s definitely worth looking into. I’ve only ever seen it used in Clojure(Script) projects although there’s support in other languages too.
