Suggestions
I'd recommend checking in on the IRC channel or opening a Github issue, much better way to get in touch with the developers! I'm just a very enthusiastic user who likes to report bugs. :D

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.
