Why does Qtile keep calling me back ?
I used Qtile for ages and even pushed my dotfiles to help others. But recently and excuse my language I switched to Sway to go full on Wayland without even giving Qtile a chance. Now I find that I keep stalking the Qtile repo every other day and it seems that it's calling me back. I'm so tempted to switch back but this time ditch X and go full on Wayland. If I have any X apps which I don't think I do then I'd run them in cage. Anyone else here running Qtile under Wayland ?
