What do you guys use to manage monitors?
For an arandr replacement, https://github.com/swaywm/sway/wiki/i3-Migration-Guide recommends wdisplays.

How to use projector on sway?
But, Sway also supports a Wayland protocol which allows other applications to configure the displays instead. You can read it here if you want the gritty details. My preferred application to configure Sway's outputs is wdisplays.

Are there Wayland equivalents of xrandr and xinput?
You could have a look at wdisplays. Uses wlroots.

Three monitor configuration

Tell HN: Gnome on Wayland Is Amazing
sway laptop user here (for almost 2 years I think?).
I spent a little while on this, but I migrated from i3, so I just ported every little section of my config bit by bit.
In terms of battery bar and other "bar" type things, I use waybar[0] which basically does all the things you'd expect by default (just install and it "works").
For multi-monitor, config, I initially setup with wdisplays[1] (think arandr for wayland) and then manually copied the positions into my sway config. Monitor positioning was the only thing I needed to setup (and telling it that one monitor was HDPI) and then all of the scaling and everything worked perfectly. This was my biggest selling point for wayland, I now get nice crisp fonts and application scaling works nicely (which was not the case with X).
volume control from the keyboard took no time, just a couple of extra lines.
There was some stuff to do with the clipboard (wl-clipboard[2]) and screenshots (grim[3] + slurp[4]) that required some setup, but again, just a few lines, and didn't take much mental load.
Oh and I needed to change my notifications daemon(dunst[5]), and chose to change my program launcher to one with a nicer interface and cleaner fonts (wofi[6]).
I think that's all the tweaking that I did. Oh, and I needed to do something with pipewire to sort out screensharing at the start, don't remember that too well though...

Your notifications are not provided by Plasma, but by dunst. Either you installed dunst yourself or something else you installed is dependent on dunst.

KDE-like automounting?
Here's the documentation to create an asynchronous monitor with pyudev. When a device is plugged in, use subprocess to run notify-send and send a notification through dunst with the proper parameters (search "do_action" in the dunst docs), so for example you can bind your left click to mount and your middle click to mount and open

Strange Blue push notification So guys, I need help. I don't really remember how this kind of push notification appeared on my Cinnamon here. Can you help me to put the default notification back?
The notification in your screenshot looks like dunst. Removing that notification server should bring back the default notifications by Cinnamon's own notification server (which, AFAIK, is built-in).
