Not aimed at you but... no sh*t. The "Rewrite it in Rust" community never heard of the second-system effect. I'd rather use something written in a crappier language that has been battle-tested for decades, personally.

I suppose you use Super+Middle Click? Not a bad idea, I dislike hot corners, and the "exposé" feature of niri is quite good. I might actually remap it to Super+Middle Click. (I use Super+side mouse buttons to move between workspac

I dislike Elon and all his fanboys, but I recognize maturity when one is able to move past their mistakes and wrong assumptions, so good on Geohot for that. It's weird to expect anyone never to make a wrong step in their life, though I
