Three signs that Wayland is becoming the favored way to get a GUI on Linux
Recently switched to Hyprland (a Wayland tiling window manager) on NixOS. It's beautiful! As a former i3 user, I'm very happy with it. It looks really nice out of the box (especially compared to i3's default appearance) and has a lot of very interesting features.
I especially enjoy Hyprland's implementation of special workspaces, which allows me to hide specific application windows and summon them on-demand with a keybinding.
My Hyprland config is here for anyone interested: https://github.com/heywoodlh/nixos-configs/blob/master/roles...

Send a message to teams channel on Linux server SSH connexion
This is what I use for my home lab running NixOS:
https://github.com/heywoodlh/nixos-configs/blob/d5b0ffbcc4cb...
This script is so nice because it's so simple: it follows the journalctl output of sshd.service and then sends a push notification to me through Gotify's CLI (I just need to remember to setup gotify when I setup my server). The best part is that it's so easy to modify this script for ANY systemd service that is using journalctl.
I alert on all successful and failed attempts, because in my home lab, I should be the only one logging in -- so I don't really get notifications unless I'm working on something. It's helped me a few times when I've accidentally left port 22 exposed to the world on some VPS' -- reminding me to add firewall rules to reduce access.

Keyboard tricks from a macOS app dev
I use NixOS+GNOME+pop-shell for tiling windows on Linux, and I love it!
I am quite frequently on MacOS, and I use Yabai[0] and skhd[1], managed with Nix-Darwin for tiling windows and custom keyboard shortcuts. With how I make my Linux and MacOS builds look and feel identical it's pretty easy for me to forget when I'm on one vs the other.
For anyone curious, here's my repository for deploying my configs[3]. It's awesome to have one source of truth for managing NixOS servers and workstations, MacOS workstations, and other Linux workstations with Nix installed.

My Quest for the Perfect Window Manager
I really like NixOS (I just barely distro-hopped away from NixOS back to Arch). One reason I switched away is because similar to my i3 setup I would find myself tweaking my actual desktop/system more than getting work done. Mostly because I haven't sat down for a few hours to become more familiar with Nix's declarative language -- but I kind of don't Nix's language and think it is far from intuitive for me.
For reference, here's my nixpkgs repo (galaxy-chromebook is my most recent config): https://github.com/heywoodlh/nixpkgs

How to patch dwl?
Patching autostart:
-
steamvr now working on DWL
If any of you have attempted to use SteamVR with DWL then you probably ran into the same issue I did. It doesn't have support for DRM leasing, so it can't actually show an image on the headset.

Can someone recommend a compositor to me?
Have you checked DWL which is DWM for Wayland? I haven't tried it yet so I can't say anything more.

Master and Stack setup
There's a python script called stacki3 that works both on i3wm and sway. There is also a dwm clone for wayland called dwl.
-
I actually use linux because its objectively better
I currently use dwl which is much, much lighter than i3 and suits my needs. On my laptop I just don't have a window manager of any kind installed, I can get by with lynx and the TTY.

Help needed with Wayland (riverwm and dwl) on Void Linux
I wanted to try two wayland compositors out (specifically dwl and river) and cannot for the life of me seem to get it working properly. I am currently doing this inside a VirtualBox vm.
