Asahi Linux To Users: Please Stop Using X.Org
I don't actually remember what xmonad with workspaces by default (or what sway does, for that matter), I used https://hackage.haskell.org/package/xmonad-contrib-0.17.1/docs/XMonad-Layout-IndependentScreens.html to get an independent set of workspaces per screen. You can (and I do) use https://gitlab.com/hyask/swaysome to get that with sway.
- Can the active output-awarness of ‘workspace prev_on_output’ be used for bindings using ‘workspace <num:name>’?
- `swaysome` 2.0 released, introducing workspace groups
-
Noob Question... Is there a limited # of commands per keybinding?
This is what I have in my config. (I am using swaysome to keep it generalized)
-
Swapping Workspaces
I found a package swaysome that also that also seems to help and allows me to all monitors workspace simultaneously. This is what I have so far...
-
Using 10 workspaces for each monitor in a multi-monitor setup ?
I did this with Swaysome: https://gitlab.com/hyask/swaysome

Barrier: Open-Source KVM Software
There is an actively developed fork https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap, however that fork is still undergoing heavy development and recommends sticking with Barrier until they're able to release v3.0.0 which they expect rather soon.

Hrvach/Deskhop: Fast Desktop Switching Device
barrier is basically a dead project now. The active members of the project forked it and are going to release when ready but
https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap
Keep an eye on that for anything new

KDE Plasma 6.0 Is Enabling Wayland by Default
There's a new fork of barrier called input leap (not to be confused with the leap motion), https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap with work on getting Wayland support in shape. Not sure how far the support is atm, but the gnome 45 release notes mentioned "Wayland support for Input Leap" (https://release.gnome.org/45/)
Wayland tracker issue, https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap/issues/109

What do you think of Smart KVM as a feature on a monitor?
I wonder if I would be better off just buying a LG monitor without the Smart KVM, and instead using Barrier (or, Input Leap, which seems to be maintained actively compared to Barrier https://github.com/input-leap/input-leap)
- Barrier-like KVM for XWayland and MacOS
-
KVM but only mouse and keyboard
Could also be worth mentioning that Barrier is basically unmaintained at this point so you'll probably never get Wayland support there. The maintainers (apparently the owner of the debauchee/barrier dropped off the face of the earth) of Barrier forked it and migrated to input-leap (issue with details if interested) which is where all development is presently, although they haven't made a release yet.
