@natecox I was doing a cachy install and noticed niri on the list. After playing with it there and now on fedora (w/o noctalia) I think I'm converted. We have amazing windowing innovations going on right now. Strange. I guess we had a boring 40 years because Apple and Microsoft convinced people there was just one way to do it. MSFT cribbing off AAPL the whole time.

@buckfiftyseven I've been non-standard for a while, tiling window managers are my jam since back in the i3 days. I'm thrilled to see it getting a bit more popular. I do kinda bastardize niri by putting into "always full screen" mode because splitting on my 13 inch monitor isn't actually realistic, and it makes niri feel a lot like using i3 or sway in tabbed mode.
