emptty is a simple, lightweight CLI Display Manager that gives you a console login screen as an alternative to a typical login manager GUI that displays in place of the default shell at the end of the boot process. Kindly suggested by antyhrabia.
- Make bash my login shell
-
GanTTY - project management from the terminal
For first moment, I thought it's new login manager like empTTY.

Ly display manager issues!
After building & installing ly demonstrate manager (https://github.com/nullgemm/ly) i can'tseem to start it as there is no entry in /etc/sv to start. I then came across this: https://github.com/drozdowsky/ly-void. A build of ly that supports runit & sure enough it has a service to start however when i restart my pc and ly display manager starts, even with the right credentials it does not log in, only turning off my monitor for a moment then booting back into the display manager screen. This is the case for starting my window manager, starting my .xinitrc however it can successfully start the shell. Any help would be greatly appreciated to either start the official build, or to correct the modified one.

Bloated base install?
I definitely know what you mean; I used to use ly (and haven't been able to figure out how to write a package/service for it, yet) and would love to use that, again.

Display Managers and TTY
Yes, actually! Ly is a console-based display manager that allows you to select your login target between any of the standard sessions (KDEs, GNOMEs, and what have you), explicit launching of .xinitrc, or just dropping straight into terminal.

Which DE do you prefer?
What DM are you using? I tried to compile both ly-void and normal ly according to this guide.
