So no apps worth mentioning work, and only gaming (which doesn't work on Linux) is benefitted? Sway is dead and most of those other replacements are just worse. Yeah DOA like I said.
have you seen steam deck sales? linux gaming is mainstream. everything I've tried recently just works.
When would you think sway is dead lol? it has way more commits than i3, same number of contributors, and the last commit was 7 minutes ago. i3 hasn't been touched in months. i3 is dead, contributors have jumped to sway
also, even if you aren't using scratchpads over guake, guake runs on Wayland. https://github.com/Guake/guake/issues/1934
idk why all the people against Wayland are so clueless lol, it feels intentionally ignorant at this point
i3wm is a 15 year old feature complete window manager not a JavaScript framework. It isn't dead if it hasn't had a new release this month.
The last commit was 4 days ago the last release 4 months or so ago. It has again seen continuous development for 15 years.
where are gaps?
also fair, not dead, but it's silly to say sway is too.
gaps was merged a while ago
