A dynamic tiling Wayland compositor

Breaking changes

  • window/layer rule regexes now require a full match (not any match) to trigger.
  • cursor:dumb_copy is gone in favor of cursor:use_cpu_buffer. This should allow no-downsides Nvidia hardware cursors. Please note it’s experimental.

    This is unbeleivably frustrating because AFAICT this is the best Wayland TWM out there, I’ve been using it for about a year now and it’s really good 😅. Have any recs on a feature competative option that isn’t run by bigots?

        Different usage model isn’t it? Sway’s mostly manual while hyprland is more dynamic with a focus on eye candy.
