    Ooh, that’s gorgeous. What attracted you to niri over other tiling wms? I’m thinking of Wayland options for my laptop.

      Recently switched to Niri:

      • Vertical tiling is very easy to navigate by keyboard and mouse - no more windows cluttering
      • Predefined vertical workspaces for you apps to predefine and separate apps (ie: separate all communication apps to reduce distraction)
      • Flawless multi monitor support: move windows or whole workspaces between monitors

      You can use Dank Linux or Noctalia Shell for easy setup or configure waybar to add an status bar.

        To anyone familiar with Sway who’d like to try a scrolling WM, check out Scroll. It’s a fork of Sway (you can use the same config with minimal changes) which behaves similarly to Niri.
