Sway is an i3-compatible window manager for Wayland.

Tiling window managers shit the bed when it comes to multi monitor setups, that's why I stick to KDE. Emacs on one monitor, web browser on another and then server stats if there is a third going.

Of course I'll switch to it in the future and I can't wait to do that but I'm just not comfortable right now with it and I don't have the spare time and energy to contribue.

That being said I try the git version from time to time. I also have no idea how the fuck to migrate my xinitrc to wayland.

I like cwm better. I don't like tiling that much.

Wayland is fixing something that aint broke.

They are usually at their best on multi screen setups imo
Most stackers don't treat each display as having its own workspaces but tilers usually do
