Deb_Dots VS sway

I use this one on the fairly rare occassions when I upgrade my hardware or when I mess up one of my computers by experimenting on them.

I have been using this script to use wofi as a window switcher. You can use it with rofi, just substitute the wofi parameters with rofi's on line 14. I have mapped to the alt+t in my sway config file:

1- Window switcher script, used in combination with wofi.

I have a script that uses wofi (a native Wayland rofi-type launcher) for the purpose you pointed out in your post. You can find it here: https://github.com/argosatcore/Deb_Dots/blob/main/.local/bin/scripts/wofi/window_selector.sh

You can find the one-liner here, as an alias under the #Apt section. It is called debcrawler. It depends on the fzf package, so you will need to intall it in order to use it.

Sure, these are the awesome themes I use. For this particular color scheme, choose the one called "powerarrow-dark".

This is partially why i use tools like i3 (/ sway). i like the tool; it works extremely well for me; the design has stayed the same for 20 years; there's no profit motive to come along and fuck everything up. it just works. it is boring in the best way possible.

I also have crashes on sway, but there’s a rough workaround now which prevents the issue totally.

I believe there’s a design issue with Firefox and GTK handling input events; some Wayland compositors have workarounds but others do not.

Firefox is my preferred browser and I hope we can keep its engine alive in this era of Chrome dominance.

I'm seeing this: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Setting-Environmental-Variables but I haven't figured out how to make GDM do it, and I was wondering if there was a super simple "HEY SWAY READ MY .PROFILE" thing I could do.

So I searched around and found the following bug report where this problem and a possible solution was borough up: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/2966 , which was then immediately closed again.

I've been using Sway since late 2019. I like the workflow of a WM. I honestly find it hard to go back to a DE, I like having a minimalistic desktop.

Sway is fast, minimal, and flexible. Their recommended tools/addons are worth a look: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/Useful-add-ons-for-sway

From that list I use greetd + tuigreet as my login manager, sway-launcher-desktop for FZF-powered app launching, and wob for lightweight brightness and volume display (send '50' to the wob socket and it'll show 50%; it doesn't get simpler).
