A linux newbie has installed and configured Arch. Minimalist graphical capabilities?
Check out https://github.com/apognu/tuigreet if you want a terminal based display manager.

musl-void + flatpak appreciation post
Many PRs have been opened to add Ly to the repos, they've all been rejected because of the submodule thing and because it's had some severe technical issues. I really don't understand this subreddit's obsession with that specific greeter. If you want something in the repos that provides an almost identical interface, use greetd + tuigreet.

swaylock at boot instead of greeter?
i like greetd using tuigreet

NixOS Tuigreet and SystemD

Add custom keymap
However, from what I understand, I think that setxkbmap only sets the layout after starting Xorg. Infact when I first boot the computer and get to my display manager tuigreet (which is a TUI application that runsi in a tty), I have to type my credentials in QWERTY because of course Xorg has not started yet.

Ly display manager : characters rendered on top of the box
I like it because it just works. Install the packages, set greetd to use tuigreet, enable the greetd service, and you're done. Also subjectively I like the UI better.

A visual representation of march=native on a different computer, I'm surprised it got that far.

Ly – A TUI Display Manager
Knowing the alternative tuigreet (https://github.com/apognu/tuigreet), there won't be much of a difference between a video and the given screenshot. You have a prompt, you enter username and password and your Wayland compositor/X session starts up.

Ugh. Why make me switch browsers, Microsoft?
I don't think we'll ever see a 'best' as there are too many variables now. I can seamlessly switch back and forth just by pressing ,+V in QB and closing Edge to go back (uses Gobble (like swallow or devour but faster)). I think most people are using more than one browser on desktop nowadays.

Window swallow in Rust!
I've created an alternative to Devour (the window-manager agnostic window-swallower) in Rust. I submitted a pull request to fix an annoying problem with Devour and nothing happened, so I took matters into my own hands and created Gobble. Not only did I fix that problem, but I ended up with better performance than Devour! Here is the GitHub link: https://github.com/EmperorPenguin18/gobble
