Let's do it right here!
Sway is a Wayland i3 implementation and you really should be using Wayland instead of X.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

For a while I would have agreed, and I used sway for years. But recently I switched back to i3 (i3-rounded) due to display issues with my AMD GPU. I started doing most of my development in the TTY, and found that switching from TTY to Wayland takes half a second and can sometimes break my GPU (until I switch between TTY and display a few times). With X11 it's instant and without issue ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Hoping that gets fixed down the road, or that it's specific to my GPU.
