help me choose a wm
Just fyi, river is nothing like awesome, it's like bspwm. There was an attempt to make an awesome clone for wayland but it's no longer under development. Also, though it's not tiling, for completeness there's also labwc which is a wayland clone of openbox.

What window manager or desktop environment do you use?
I've been using labwc for nearly a year now and I'm really happy with it. Its a simple floating wm though, so not sure that would be something you are looking for.

Thanks for the honorable mention of Manjaro Sway edition! I always look a little towards nix, void an Solus too, but loosing the aur would be to big of a sacrifice for me.
